I have searched and fiddled around for an answer to this, but nothing seems to work. I have a basic logitech 3 button (5 including scroll directions) usb mouse with a ps/2 converter on it. My las xorg.conf simply had an option for buttons 5 and zaxismapping 4 5. It worked fine. I try the same thing now and it doesn't work, any ideas? Nothing has changed that I know of.
Edit: Another question, I also looked around for this, but how does one configure gpm? or if it is automatically configured/needs no configuration, how do you use it?

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"oz

Had same problem a while back...solution was....
==========================================================
Solved my problem by installation of xorg.conf.hwd "SAMPLE" into /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the "mv" command.
The xorg.conf file needs to be in /etc/x11.....

What Logitech model is it?
Can you post the mouse section of your xorg.conf file so we can have a looksee?
Have you tried the mouse in another distro or OS since it stopped working to see if the mouse is perhaps defective?

I think I'll jsut get a new mouse and try it, as I don't know what the model is, save that it is a basic old logitech. My mosue section is as follows
# **********************************************************************
# Core Pointer's InputDevice section
# **********************************************************************
Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier and driver
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
# Mouse-speed setting for PS/2 mouse.
# Option "Resolution" "500"
# When using XQUEUE, comment out the above two lines, and uncomment
# the following line.
# Option "Protocol" "Xqueue"
# Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice. In
# almost every case these lines should be omitted.
# Option "BaudRate" "9600"
# Option "SampleRate" "150"
# Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice
# Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms)
# Option "Emulate3Buttons"
# Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50"
# ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice
# Option "ChordMiddle"
EndSectionI have not tried it with another distro, but it seemed to work ok on an xp home box.

Yeah, probably should try a new one. In the interim, here's mine:
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"It's identical to yours except for the protocol line, and it seems to be working fine.
