Enabling scroll mouse in RedHat 7.3 problem!

Hi

Any of you guys help me on this one cos at the minute im stumped :(

Im using RedHat 7.3 and im trying to get my MS Wheel Mouse working so that i can copy/paste text in the terminal and also scroll pages.

Ive changed the InputDevice section in my XF86Config-4 file to the following

Code:

---

Section "InputDevice"                                             
                    Identifier  "mouse"                                   
                    Driver      "mouse"                                   
                    Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"                       
                    Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"                     
                    Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"                       
        EndSection

---

Then saved the file but no joy!

As i said im stumped, so any help would be great!

Cheers

If you installed XFree86-Version 4.0, the configuration has to look like


File /etc/X11/XF86Config

Code:

---



  Section "InputDevice"
      Identifier "Mouse"
      Driver    "mouse"
      Option "Protocol"        "imps/2"
      Option "Device"          "/dev/psaux"
      Option "ZAxisMapping"    "4 5"
      Option "Buttons"        "3"
  EndSection

I'm finding the same thing as you. Have you restarted the Xserver?
