> Hal2k1 did you get this fixed? I have the identical issue.

Not yet, I got very frustrated with my crippled mouse functionality. I
use a Logitech Marble Mouse for a medical reason, and it is not an
option for me to use a standard mouse with scroll wheel. If this issue
isn't fixed in Intrepid Ibex, then I simply won't be using Intrepid
Ibex. It is a show-stopper issue for me.

I have currently gone back to Hardy (x86_64) running Kubuntu with KDE
4.1 from the ppa repositories.

Hardy works fine. It is only Interpid that has this issue.

>There is a new thing in Intrepid that auto-detects this stuff, and will
allow us to change settings at runtime, with one day a graphical UI
(sounds great!), but for now it is not working, so you can either play
with xinput (by reading manualks) or here is a work around to disable
the auto stuff:

>Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and add:

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
EndSection

... So are you saying that if I edit xorg.conf, and I add the following
pieces:

======================

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Marble Mouse"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "CorePointer"
    Option "Name" "Logitech USB Trackball"
    Option "Protocol" "auto"
    Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
    Option "Buttons" "5"
    Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
    Option "EmulateWheelButton" "9"
    Option "YaxisMapping" "4 5"
    #Option "XaxisMapping" "6 7"
    Option "ButtonMapping" "1 8 3 9 2"
EndSection

and later:

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier "Default layout"
        Screen "Default Screen"
        InputDevice "Marble Mouse"
EndSection

=======================

... that now with Interpid Ibex my Marble Mouse trackball should work
properly once more, as it used to with Hardy Heron?

If that is the case then I will try it also (assuming I have understood
you properly) and I will confirm if it works.
