Hi Mike,
Check your InputDevice section for the mouse. Make sure it has a
ZAxisMapping.
The one from my xorg.conf (formerly XF86Config I think) looks like:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection
The importnat piece is the Option "ZaxisMapping... " section. Try
adding that to the
config file... Make sure you have a backup copy before trying this!!!
