 I rewrote the moose.xdd, and it is now a kernel module which you can find
in freemint/sys/xdd/whlmoose in the cvs source tree. I did not have access
to a wheelmouse and I still dont have, but this rewrite was necessary to
get the mouse related things cleaned up. Now my Milan is not in use. I had
a diskcrash in the Hades and had to take the disk in the Milan to resque
as much as possible, leaving the Milan without a hardisk. This means I
cannot do tests with this until I can afford to get a new disk for the
Milan. However, the code to support wheels are still there, but noone
tested it, I think.
