Thanks for the explanation. So is it due to the incorrect selection of the graphics driver ? I have used F14 in the same hardware and was able to enable desktop effects in GNOME-2. So I thought that GNOME-3 would work. When I analysed /var/log/X.0.log I found the following lines: [ 33.188] (II) config/udev: Adding input device ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse (/dev/input/event3) [ 33.188] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Applying InputClass "evdev pointer catchall" [ 33.188] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: always reports core events [ 33.188] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Device: "/dev/input/event3" [ 33.188] (--) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Found 3 mouse buttons [ 33.188] (--) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Found scroll wheel(s) [ 33.188] (--) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Found relative axes [ 33.188] (--) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Found x and y relative axes [ 33.188] (II) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: Configuring as mouse [ 33.188] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: YAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 [ 33.188] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: EmulateWheelButton: 4, EmulateWheelInertia: 10, EmulateWheelTimeout: 200 [ 33.188] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse" (type: MOUSE) [ 33.188] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1 [ 33.189] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: (accel) acceleration profile 0 [ 33.189] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: (accel) acceleration factor: 2.000 [ 33.189] (**) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: (accel) acceleration threshold: 4 [ 33.189] (II) ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse: initialized for relative axes.
