I have an SE/30 at home, so I sympathize.  I don't know which system
release should deal with it, but there is an INIT you can get which
will do for Scroll Bars what the Keyboard CDEV does for the keyboard.

The INIT is called Scroll Limit, and the icon consists of a 55 MPH
Speed Limit sign with a scroll bar next ot it.  It is Freeware.  WHen
you boot up, you go to the Control Panel and choose the Scroll Limit
icon.  You are presented with a sample scroll bar with the dog-cow on
one end, and a series of radio button settings that allow you to
determine the amount to scroll while you hold down the button, the
amount to scroll with each click, etc.  The scroll bar can be tested
with the settings, and the dog-cow rotates.  I got my copy of Scroll
Limit at SUMEX.

Imagine what scrolling must be like on the IIfx!
