I tried again "IMPS/2" and it started working under X. Then I got your
answer. I do not know why it did not work earlier. But I have
"Emulate3Buttons" "off".
The wheel works also as the third button.
But on the console the mouse still does not work
though I changed the configuration of gpm to imps2.
Does anybody have any clue?
Many thanks
