[ILUG] Wheelie mouse

[C Hennessy]

Here are the lines I use in my XF86Config file :
Section "Pointer"
   Protocol        "IMPS/2"
   Device          "/dev/psaux"
   Resolution      100
   Buttons         5
   ZAxisMapping    4 5
EndSection

Also you may find that some applications do not understand the wheel
movements
e.g. KDE apps. For these you could use imwheel
