Yes, you should have done that before you sent your first email :). Now that we are all wasting bandwidth, I don't think your computer can tell the difference between a wireless and a normal mouse. I have Microsoft opticals on two that work on the ps/2 port and one that is hooked up to the usb port. The roller scrolls through text on all of them. You have to setup your mouse in XF86Config to do that. Having purchased several optical mice I will probably replace the remaining one that has a ball. The new one will be wireless. A wireless keyboard/mouse combo was going to be my Christmas purchase but they were all sold out. I bought a Soundblaster Audigy instead. MP3 conversions of my audio CDs using digital extraction sound cleaner than wav's from the analog side. The wireless mouse would have been better. I needed 6 hours of parallel processing to reconvert my Spanish audio CDs.
