Cut and Pase with mouse
I have two installaions of SLES 7. On one machine i can use the the mouse to cut & paste text in an x-term window by highlighting the text with the left button, and copying it with the right (while still holding down the left). On the other machine I only get a pop-up application menu when I use the same button combination. Can someone please let me know how to change the mouse button behavior on the second machine? Thanks, Christoph Ruepprich

In your XF86config file, under the section InputDevice have the line Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on" that may fix it. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
