Re:About the mouse wheel...

Not sure what the problem is. I'm new to Linux but the installation programs in the two distributions I'm using (Mandrake and Knoppix) had no problems with configuring the mouse wheel on my (shudder) Microsoft mouse. It also turned out the mouse wheel functions perfectly as a Linux "middle click", and the scrolling function is fine. Learning to use the slightly different copy-paste and so on isn't difficult either.

Plenty of information on the net about just about everything... OK Linux is different but that's to be expected.
