I tried that, no joy. I tried copying in the "Synaptics" device, just like in the previous xorg.conf, and also as settings inside the "configured mouse". Neither made any difference. I also discovered that while KDE will let me change the magnitude of the scroll events, it will not allow me to turn them off. I cannot set "scroll" to "0", only "1" or more.
