Hello all,
I have Knoppix hd-installed on a seperate standalone vmware machine.
It all works fine, except I can't make my wheelmouse work properly : ie. can not make use of the wheel.
I've looked around at the docs, faqs and forum entries on this subject and applied them but invain.
This what I have :
- Hardware :
Logitech M-BJ69 Optical Wheelmouse
This mous has 2 buttons and the wheel between them
I make use of the PS/2 connection
- These are the updates done to the configuration files :
----------------start of data --------------------------------
a- update /etc/lilo.conf file ( 1 line ):
append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi apm=power-off nomce wheelmouse"
b- update /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file :
* at the beginning :
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
# InputDevice "PS/2 Mouse" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse" "CorePointer"
# Serial Mouse not detected
# USB Mouse not detected
EndSection
* for ps/2 mouse :
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
------------------- end of data -------------------
I've rebooted Knoppix but still have no success .
I'm calling up Kwrite editor with a big text file : no luck
I'm calling up the conqueror explorer with a big directory : no luck
Anyone has an idea ?
