Both Logitech Marble Mouse wheel-emulation scroll-button and cntrl-alt-backspace X abort hotkey worked in 2009.

But with the latest PCLOS and Mandriva, due to evdev or something, a fix I found was to put insert in xorg.conf:

Section "ServerFlags"
...
Option "AutoAddDevices" "false"
...
EndSection

But it has killed my cntrl-alt-backspace X abort hotkey!

Any fixes? What the heck is this evdev stuff anyways?

Thanks.

P.S. Although I initially hated KDE4 and Dolphin, for a couple shortcommings, I'm starting to find I love it. Can't wait to get nepomuk and strigi indexing my files according to task-context!
