Try using /dev/psaux, at least if you're useing XFree4==it doesn't get along with the mouse daemon on thinkpads. Also, did you set "emulate three buttons" when configuring X? Also, an increasing number of applications seem to need shift-middle to paste--lynx, trn, . . . those that use the mouse in text mode for themselves typically need the shift to pass the click along. hawk -- Prof. Richard E.
