I have mandrake7.2 installed, I can't seem to figure out how to get my wheel working on my mouse. I have edited the XF86config(change the entry for ps2 to imps/2), and installed imwheel. I am using Logitech cordless. Thanks in advance!

add to your XF86Config, in the mouse section:

Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

This should do the trick.

I did add "ZAxixMapping 4 5 ", the problem is my wheel doesn't work in netscape4.76 but it works in netscape6, konquorer,..
Thanks!

I noticed the same thing using a Logitech wheel mouse - I set it up the same as you and it works in Konqueror and NS6 but not NS 4.75 -must be a Netscape quirk.

To get netscape to work you need to install (and run) the program imwheel. You should be able to find it at various places, but it can act strangly. For me it would scroll entire pages.
