I'm running FreeBSD-current 3.0. Ok, I give up. Help! - I've got an "Appoint" 3-button mouse. - All three buttons worked fine under X as a "microsoft" mouse. (Although it was a bit jumpy/flakey at times. At least copy-n-paste worked.) - I added moused_port="/dev/cuaa0" and moused_type="microsoft" to rc.conf.local - According to the directions I've pointed X to /dev/sysmouse and called it a MouseSystems mouse. The problem is that my middle button is ignored and I can't copy-n-paste with it. On the other hand, on the vt console screens I can copy-n-paste fine with the 3rd button. What do I do? I see some code in the moused source that is trying to work around some sort of LogiTech button problem ... but I can't figure out how to apply the information to my situation. -- Daniel Ortmann 507.288.7732 (h) ortmann@isl.net 2414 30 av NW, #D 507.253.6795 (w) ortmann@vnet.ibm.com Rochester, MN 55901 "PERL: The Swiss Army Chainsaw"
