I get working mouse but cannot switch from firefox to xterm, I have to quit firefox and then quit xterm and then get back to firefox. I want to copy from xterm and paste in browser, I am unable to switch left and right click on the mouse do not work(respond). I used to be able to do this before. How can I troubleshoot the mouse? or do I just get a ps2 mouse and use it and see if I can switch between apps with it? Thanks 4 helping out, Antonio
