Hello- i have a logitech 2 button mouse with a wheel in the middle. i would like to get the wheel to work in x-windows, but i can't get the scrolling to work. here is what i have done so far.
rc.conf -------- moused_type="ps/2" moused_port="/dev/psm0" moused_enable="YES" moused_flags="-z 4"
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config ... Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "MouseSystems" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Buttons" "5" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection ...
I have a Logitech Mouseman Optical Dual Sensor (highly recommended, BTW) and it works fine (wheel and all) My mouse has 6 buttons (has a little thumb button that I never use) but hopefully my config will help you sort out yours.
First off, I don't use moused. Just don't see any need for it. However, I think (guessing) that you might do better without the -z option.
Here is the applicable entry in XF86Config:
Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psm0" Option "Buttons" "6" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
You may find that your z-axis (i.e. scroll) isn't the same numbers, try "3 4" maybe. I had to do a little guesswork to get mine working correctly at first.
