        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Hi All,

Oh now this is truly a pain in the neck (why the P2 priority).  Lotus Approach
does not have scroll wheel support.  In XP, you can load a utility called
"Flywheel" that will give you back your scroll wheel.  Problem: flywheel does
not work in Wine.

Would you please enhance the mouse drives in Wine to support a function similar
to Flywheel to allow Approach to use the scroll wheel?  Or, fix Wine to use
Flywheel?

Many thanks,
-T

Flywheel is "Abandonware" and is free.  The author had a page stating so
several
years ago but has taken it down since.  Here is a reference to its status on PC
