Thanks for all the info. A local shop sells only: Logitech Trackman Marble Trackball (wired), ambidexterous, but no wheel $40 Logitech M570 Wireless Trackball Mouse (wireless), for right hand, I guess, with wheel $65 I am right-handed, but have used the mouse in my left hand for almost 10 years to keep my right free for a pen/pencil. I could see what some other shops have. > so, have you tried a different mouse yet? Yeah. I just plugged in the ps/2 mouse with the usb adaptor and there are no problems. I really didn't believe that the other mouse was wearing out, but this is the proof. _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
