Default Finally got that mouse wheel working :-)

If any of you remember I was baffled as to why the wheel on a Logitech
optical would not work.

What had happened is I copied xorg.conf to ~/ for a backup as I was
tweaking settings.

It never occurred to me that X would detect and use that xorg.conf file.

I was editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf which of course was having no effect at
all :-)

I have an 2 identical machines (I mean identical down to every component)
and the darn wheel worked fine and when I saw it worked on it I was
beginning to think one machine was haunted or something :-)

Well I got it sorted out and now scroll just fine. Glad I did get it
working as the scrolling is handy.

I'd say on the "Duhh Scale" this gets a 9.5 :-)
