IMPS/2 is part of X, although ive seen some instances(mainly with MS wheel mice) where that protocol didn't work and a friend set up the /dev/gpmdata stuff to get it working see the link above on other protocols/ways to get the mouse to talk nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(all > logitech trackman marble wheel) I tried this with my Logitech Trackman Marble mouse and it didn't work. All that happened wa that my mouse pointer stuck at the top right of the X display and didn't do anything. I downloaded the imwhhel app using apt-get. You say 'use the imwheel program to scroll' - I am not sure what to do with inwheel - I read the DEBIAN readme which came with it and put the relevant files etc. into /etc/X11/imwheel and /etc/X11/Xsession. Tried to run 'imwheel' in X but without the mose couldn't open an xterm to type it in! Is there something I am not doing? Is IMPS/2 available in X or do I need to compile it in/fetch it from somewhere? Cheers. -- Phillip Deackes Using Storm Linux
