Hmmm. Mine was already set to that, so my problem was different. I use the
past tense because the problem was solved by moving the old XF86Config file
to one side, then running 8.1's sax2. This has generated a XF86Config which
works correctly, although the only difference in the mouse section is that
emulate 3 buttons is now turned on. Most odd. But the problem has gone away,
so that's OK. :o)
