You do not need the IMWheel program installed. I have this very same mouse, in the file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 the pointer part looks like this: -- Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection -- The mouse works beautifully in most applications.
