Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.1.0-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

With Xfree 3.x the wheel was working just great using the IMPS/2 protocol,
and ZaxisMapping 4 5.  

After upgrading to 4.x, it stopped working.  I've just now tried to get it 
to work,  but was not able to.

I've tried the MouseManPlusPs/2 protocol, as well as the ImPS/2, with
the number of buttons set to 5 and 6, and zaxismapping using buttons 4, 5 
and also buttons 5, 6, it just doesnt work in any combination.

Also in my searching around I came across alot of conflicting information. 
Ie. some pages claim the X protocol only supports 5 buttons, though I dont
see anything about this in the mouse man page, and the Xserver happily
accepts a configuration option of 6 buttons.  Can one use more than 5
buttons?

This mouse is listed in the README.mouse.gz file, but the suggested options
therein dont work.

Wheel processing was overhauled for xserver-xorg-input-mouse 1.1.1 (now
available in etch).

Since the original bug submitter is not able to verify the fix, I will
assume the matter has been dealt with by the overhaul (if not before)
and close this bug.
