Hi,

On Sid, using the evdev mousedriver in xorg.conf, scrolling is terrible.
It just is unworkable. Have to use the scrollbar.

Unfortunately using FF on XP under VMware it's terrific.

Anybody have good experiences with mousewheel scroll?

What driver do you use?

Update the driver?

hugo@debian:~$ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-evdev
xserver-xorg-input-evdev:
  Installed: 1:1.2.0-1
  Candidate: 1:2.0.8-1
  Version table:
     1:2.0.8-1 0

 *** 1:1.2.0-1 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The scroll wheel works fine for me. (Note, though, that I do run gpm, and evdev 2.0.8-1. But it's always worked for me with the nvidia driver.)

Using the nvidia driver:
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Configured Mouse"
    Driver         "mouse"
    Option         "CorePointer"
    Option         "Device"        "/dev/psaux"
    Option         "Protocol"      "auto"
    Option         "ZAxisMapping"  "4 5"
EndSection

Using the nv driver:
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier     "Configured Mouse"
    Driver         "mouse"
    Option         "CorePointer"
    Option         "Device"          "/dev/psaux"
    Option         "Protocol"        "IMPS/2"
    Option         "ZAxisMapping"    "4 5"
    Option         "Buttons"         "5"
    Option         "SendCoreEvents"  "true"
    Option         "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
EndSection
