Quick question, has anyone found either a hardware setup or a configuration tweek which will allow you to use the wheel mouseHi Vernon Strange that you should experience such a Problem. but I have to ask a
with a KVM device (Curently I use the Belkin SOHO 4port + audio) under the 2.6* kernels.
few Q's.
Does the scroll work if the mouse is plugged directly into the PC, (no
kvm)?
What model KVM is it?
Did you only experience the problem after migrating to the 2.6 kernel?
Which kernel is it?
The reason I must ask is I have over 40 Kvms on the production Line here and apart from dropping the mouse between switching we have never had any troubles with the scroll
cheers
It's one of the newer Belkins SOHO 4 port with audio - I got it early last year. The scroll mouse works under both kernels but with the 2.6 kernel, when you switch back (using KDE) the mouse goes nuts, opening windows. It completly looses control. The normal CTRL-ALT-F1 -> F7 re-syncs the mouse under the 2.4 kernels but does not fix it under the 2.6. Rebooting is the only way I have found to get mouse control back.
The resolution so far is not to use the belkins but before I switch brands, I want to make sure this problem is not an issue with other KVM's.
