I prey, not pray.
it should work by default...I hope you arent trying to use netscape navigator, because the mouse wheel is a pain in the ass to get working in that. Mozilla should work fine right out of the box.

Yeah, I tried Mozilla when 1.0.1 came out, the wheel works great =)

But, I could not get the dragging + scrolling <.> feature to work, so I switched back to IE. :happy:

I don't use the MS Intellimouse =/ , I do use a similar mouse product from MS. The scroll works fine with Linux.

If your mouse is USB, it should automatically work.


Wheel is pretty important now, because I can't live without it !

:linux: Go Linux !?
