Did it work with 2.4? I consider buying a new mouse
with a wheel and connect it through my KVM. I know
there have been a lot of problems with wheel and
gpm. Basically if you have had X running and
configured to use the wheel, it is impossible to
get gpm working afterwards without reseting. (In
some cases unpluging the mouse will help). Does
this problem change with 2.6?
