| Quote  |  | in Xsetup , I had chosen yes for "Wheelmice use Imps/2 protocol",  I have gone there and redone the setup at least 50 times, and then restarted "startx",  hoping it will work at some point but it never did  . |   By restarting, did you exit X first?
 
 | Quote  |  | I don't understand why the scroll wheel doesn't work, when it works fine with other distros. |   DSL uses the tinyx server by default, whereas most distros use a fully-featured one (it's also slightly older)... which could be an explanation.  You could try one on DSL if you can't this to work.  Or a newer tinyx server (see mydsl).
