It should, but that's what I always need for classic along with cocolino driver for the wheel to work.

UAE injects freewheel compatible hardware key codes for mouseup/down. It is OS's problem to use them or not.
There is no driver, this is not some USB or serial or PS/2 mouse that can transfer wheel info in hardware level. |

This is the "nm2mw" Raw to MOUSEWHEEL translator program compiled for ppc OS4. The executable is bigger than the 68k and works exactly the same, but is ppc.
Included a commodity icon with the OS41 look. |

What i mean is once mouse emulation will be not classic one, but usb (for example), then os4 will handle that all well, and wheel will works without needs of FreeWhell, or that nm2mw tool from Thomas Rapp |

USB happens someday.
No one still hasn't told me which USB adapter is the "best" one and/or included enough spec information. My requirements are the usual: only one adapter will be emulated. It MUST be the most supported one. http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=82131 |

Best is DENEB. it is DMA, Zorro III, and one of the most prized cards in big box amigas. It's also OS4 supported IIRC. I'd also suggest pci USB cards for the sake of simplicity but I believe they need a pci graphics card to work so that may not be an option for now.
I don't know any deneb technical details. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |

I agree that Deneb ticks all the required boxes: Z2 and Z3 (Zorro is 100% requirement = can work in any emulated Amiga config, even if real world model does not have Z2/Z3 slots), DMA capable = can be very fast in emulation.
Lack of documentation is the remaining problem. Even something basic as driver source code and memory map should be enough, no need for detailed hardware specs. Only "logical" details are needed, there is no need for hardware level details in emulation (Zorro signaling, timing, whatever). |

I believe that the morphos port of Poseidon includes source, although whether the AROS Public Licence is compatible with GPL, is a question for more lawyerly people |

The Poseidon code that is in the AROS tree does not include the driver code for the Deneb.

Fortunately there seems to be a solution, at least partial:

And that seems to work already. At least with game "MACE" and their work in progress "Emotion" video player, there is video of winuae with that composite patch: [ Show youtube player ] @Toni I wrote mail to Chris about Deneb docs, but not sure if mail i found (from 2014) is his current one. |

im not sure chris is the person to give further the technical data about deneb. normally it would be the hardware designer, m . boehmer. i have not heard ftom him since as while, but it seems that there was some disagreement between and chris later on. which may complicate the matters again. as result i think jens from icomp finally bought or licensed the stack to provide software support for his usb solution.
this all as far my uncertain recollection reaches. and aros sources have nothing to do with it. rather the other way around. id love to see deneb hardware drivers in aros sources, but they were not part of the deal, especially aros68k wasnt any far by then. so, in short, go try to reach michael. |

Seeing how everything is all about the money and that they all want to protect what they do I don't see why the Deneb author would give you any kind of documentation.
Not that I agree with that, but that's the sad state of the Amiga "market". |

I contacted M.Boehmer about year ago and he said he can give hardware specs but then I guess I forgot about it (I had too much other things to do) and now he seems to have disappeared.
