Touchpad scrollwheel won't scroll under sarge
I'm running sarge on my laptop which has a touchpad & a USB mouse. The
USB mouse works fine (all 7 buttons!) after using xmodmap. The touchpad
works fine except for the fact that the sroll wheel doesn't scroll.
Using xev, I see a down-scroll being seen as button 2, while an
up-scroll is not detected at all (left/right clicks are seen as buttons
1 & 3). Here's the input section of XFree86-config-4:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Touchpad"
Driver "mouse"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
# Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
The protocol is auto-detected as explorerPS/2. I also had to manually
modprobe the psmouse module - don't know if this is normal or will have
effected anthing? How do I get the scroll to work?
