I unplugged the mouse direct to the linux box and plugged in the KVM mouse cable. On the non-powered KVM, RH8.0, XFree 4... scrolling works just fine now! Maybe the newer XFree? I'll try it on the powered KVM when I get back to work on Monday. Anyway, I have a little more desk space now... and no more grabbing the wrong mouse. :)

Turned out that I got it to work finally...I had 2 mice configured in /etc/X11/XF86Config Mouse0 & DevInputMice. I commented out the latter throughout and restarted X and it now works. Not important but wanted to let you know that if you look at it, the answer is quite possibly in front of you. Craig
