Hello all, I have been off this list for a while and am not back at fooling with my Suse Linux machine. I am having this problem with getting the right mouse buttion to work. I had the mouse working great and then had to re-install Linux, so now the right mouse button doesn't work anymore. I had this problem on an earlier installation and then re-installed and it fixed the problem. But now here I am again with a new install and the right mouse buttion not working. I am using a PS/2 compatible mouse made by Microsoft. It's this fairly old clunky thing that has a nice feel to it and I would like to keep using it and not have to buy a new one to make this work. If anyone can help me out here I would really appreciate it.

I have a 2 button serial mouse. When I run sax, if I tell it I have a 2 button mouse, it won't work. I have to say I have a 3 button mouse. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

Hi Aaron I am a newbie in Linux World and I have a lot of fun setting and working with. I have the same mouse as you and I had the same problem (troube to make the right mouse button work!) This is how I resolve my problem: 1. Lunch SaX in your console; In the Mouse Tab 2. In section Type, select the generic PS/2 mouse; 3. In section Buttons, select 3 buttons; 4. In section Port, select PS/2; Press the Expert button 5. In section Option, select Emulate 3 buttons; 6. accept the expert setting; 7. Press the Apply button and test your buttons in section Test. Good luck :) -- Aiman SAWAN HeyMan@butor.com (418) 522-4196 visit www.butor.com :-) On Wed, 27 Jan 1999, you wrote: - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
