If any developers are reading this, it would be wonderful if one day a user could, with one setting, control the number of lines that a wheel mouse scrolls by per notch. As for me, I find the default setting rather irritating because it moves by too many lines per notch and I have a hard time adjusting my eyes to the new line location after a single scroll. It is enough of a problem that I question whether I can work efficiently using Linux. To answer your question, Chris, my xorg.conf file contains this: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
