Please tell me how to make the mouse emulate a 3-button mouse. It is not presently set up that way, and I can't find the file that should do that.

Hej Dough. Try fixing it in your /etc/XF86Config. A part of my file file looks like this: Section "Pointer" Protocol "IMPS/2" Device "/dev/psaux" SampleRate 60 BaudRate 1200 ZAxisMapping 4 5 Buttons 3 EndSection -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
2 places: 1. - for GPM; YaST (YaST1)/System Administration/Integrate hardware into system/Mouse configuration. You then go to change confiruation file, and add a -2 to the GPM_PARAM. 2. run Sax. On the Mouse tab, select 2 buttons (bottom right of the screen). On 26 Oct 2000, at 13:18, Doug McGarrett wrote:

Hello Doug, on Thursday, October 26, 2000 at 13:18:57 -0400, you sat in front of your keyboard and wrote:

Assuming that you are using XFree86 3.3.x, edit the file /etc/XF86Config
and under the section "Pointer" add:
Emulate3Buttons
Emulate3Timeout 200
that should do the trick. You can also do this with SaX but I don't remember
the exact procedure.
Regards...
