How can I enable scrolling with the wheel of my mouse?

The Arch Linux FAQ
In most cases you only need to add Option ''ZAxisMapping'' ''4 5'' to the InputDevice section of your XF86Config. If that does not do the trick, try this6link for more resources and instructions. You upgraded to XFree 4.3.0 or higher. Run fc-cache as root to (re)build the font cache, and things should be fine. I'd recommend getting the latest self-installing driver package from http://www.nvidia.com and read the official README thoroughly as most problems are handled in it.

Why does scrolling with the mouse wheel not operate on some computers?

EADS N.V. - FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions
To date, there’s no “genuine” mouse wheel support in Geogrid products. Operation of the mouse wheel is purely coincidental, depending on the mouse driver installed. The next version of Geogrid (e.g. in the Top50 Version 5) will include scrolling with the mouse wheel and the “hand symbol” for moving the map. See similar questions...

How do I enable X11 mouse acceleration?

Simple DirectMedia Layer
of SDL 1.0.8, you can set the environment variable SDL_VIDEO_X11_MOUSEACCEL to "X/Y", where 'X' is the numerator and 'Y' is the denomenator of the mouse acceleration.

My mouse has a wheel, but it's not working, what's up with that?

Linux Gamers' FAQ
Make sure you're using the proper protocol for your mouse, most of the new optical mice use the "IMPS/2" protocol. As defined by your xorg.conf's InputDevice section. The instructions for the next answer won't work if the proper protocol isn't being used. If you're using XFree86 version 4.x, or X.Org at all, put this in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or XF86Config): It's pretty simple. Change your mouse configuration section in XF86Config or xorg.

My mouse has a fancy wheel. Can I use it in X?

FreeBSD Documentation - Chapter 11 The X Window System and V...
Yes. But you need to customize X client programs. See Colas Nahaboo's web page (http://www.inria.fr/koala/colas/mouse-wheel-scroll/) . The imwheel program works by translating mouse button 4 and mouse button 5 events into key events. Thus, you have to get the mouse driver to translate mouse wheel events to button 4 and 5 events. There are two ways of doing this, the first way is to have moused(8) do the translation. The second way is for the X server itself to do the event translation. See similar questions...

edit] Q) How do I set up a wheel mouse?

Slackware-FAQ - LQWiki
In X, a scroll wheel counts as three buttons - up is one, down is another. Clicking the wheel is a third button. You then just need to add these two lines under the mouse section (usually 'Identifier "Mouse1"' or something similar). For a 7 button mouse, you also need to create the file /etc/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap and put the following in it for the wheel to be mapped onto the right buttons: See similar questions...

Used with the <shift> key modifier the vertical direction changes to the horizontal direction.
