Who to make the mouse wheel switch work spaces in Compiz

Hello,

I recently installed Linux Mint 8, which is an amazing distribution. I can get everything to work perfect, but I cannot figure out how to make the mouse wheel change desktops in compiz. If anyone has a solution, please tell me. Also, make sure that it only changes desktops when the mouse is over an empty desktop because I got it working once but the mouse wheel would change desktops all the time, even when I was trying to scroll through a webpage or document.

Thank you,
Randy SkaMan

If I can remember correctly, I think it is the Viewport Switcher enabled that allows this behaviour. Give it a try, its in compiz conf settings manager.
