If you have a wheel mouse after installation of Slackware, the scrolling function won't work.
You have to change /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to enable it.
**i am using vim to edit the *.conf file.
** this hack is for two buttons and one wheel mouse.
Steps:
1. open command shell
2. #cd /etc/X11
3. #vim x.conf
4. find mouse section ( "Mouse1" or something like that)
5. add this two lines ->
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"6. If your mouse protocol is set to "PS/2" or "auto" then you may have to change it to "IMPS/2" or "ExplorerPS/2"
8. save the file with the changes made.
9.restart X.
Wallah! happy scrolling :)
