I think it was Civileme or Srihadar (sorry, I probably butchered your
name!) that mentioned something about switching off numlock. That may work
in KDE but not in XFCE. I need to run "imwheel -k" for the scrolling to
work in Netscape. You can add that to ~/.xinitrc.

Beware of this pitfall: if you have run imwheel as root before, it has
created some lockfile with root permissions. You first need to find and
wipe that, otherwise you get strange warnings and errors when trying to
run imwheel as a user.
