I too, have the Logitech Mouseman. Appearently, for the middle button to work, you have to select 3-button-emulation when you run Xsetup. I guess it has something to do with the fact that the Mouseman is a Microsoft mouse compatible mouse and MS mouse on have 2 buttons. Give it a try, it works for me. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Regis C.
