Date: 21 Jul 1993 16:32:09 GMT Organization: California Institute of Technology, Pasadena Lines: 13 Message-ID: <22jr29INNi0j@gap.caltech.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: punisher.caltech.edu I can't seem to get my middle button on my mouse working with XFree86. The documentation for the mouse says that it is microsoft compatible in a two button mode (the mode that XFree86 is currently using) or a PC mouse three button mode. My mouse has three physical buttons. It is a serial mouse with an autoswitching mode depending on the driver. I tried all the mice that XFree86 supports even the mousesystems ClearDTR. But the only on that worked is microsoft which only supports two buttons. The mouse name is Impression. Does anyone have any idea how I can make my third button work? -Greg Tanaka glt@cco.caltech.edu glt@ugcs.caltech.edu
