I did what Josh said (except I changed 3 to "3") and my mouse wheel works fine now (thanks Josh). >>mouse wheel works in redhat and mandrake.

I didn't do what Josh said to do yet regarding audio, but I will soon. While I'm at it I'll ask this as well. I've used the blackbox and fluxbox window managers on slackware and I like them alot. The only problem is, they can be very slow doing certain actions. dragging a window around when windows are set to opaque drives my X cpu percentage to about 95% and it's very slow with a large lag time. Likewise, opening menus on windows and scrolling up and down with my mouse or the arrow keys is very slow. I'll ask the bb and fb people about this, but do you know why it's so slow or how to fix it? I've used bb 0.65.0, fb 0.1.14 and 0.9.8. Gnome and Kde haven't had any problems in this regard. I have an amd k6-2 500 MHz and 192 megs of sdram. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
