Ok, I finally got KDE compiled, and running. The only irksome thing now is that I can't seem to get my mouse wheel working correctly, and I'm not sure why. I'm using an Optical usb/ps2 Microsoft Mouse with a usb->ps/2 converter.

Here's an excerpt from my XF86Config



Identifier "Mouse1"
#Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxizMapping" "4 5"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
#Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"


Does anyone have any idea what I need to to do next? Obviously there's something else that I need to do that I don't know about.

I've searched through these forums, and Gentoo.org's forums, and they haven't offered any more advice outside of the usual ZAxisMapping. I also tried Option "Buttons" "5" but it's not helping.

This is the first time I've ever had so much trouble getting the wheel mouse to work under KDE so I'm a bit confused :(

Thanks for any help :)

*sigh*

I really feel like slapping myself. You know, I must have looked over that config file 20 or 30 time without ever noticing my typo. It took me re-reading my post to see it.

My mouse is working now, so ignore my idiocy. I really can't believe I did that, heh.

Try commenting 'Identifier "Mouse1"' and uncommenting 'Identifier "Mouse0"'.

Edit: I was too slow ;)
