3 button mouse
I've recently installed Linux on my computer. However I discovered that
the middle mouse button does not work in XFree 3.2. After reading GPM
documentation I discovered that:
1. My mouse is MS compatible with 3 buttons "hack" - real MS mice have
only 2 buttons.
2. XFree does not support this hack.
3. GPM does, and I can use the -R option to pas it to XFree
4. However I cannot drag with the mid button because of the limitation
of the hack.
5. I it very difficult to find a 3 button mouse that uses *another*
protocol, as most salesmen don't have a clue what I'm talking about.
So my question is: where can I buy a 3 button mouse that support
"real" 3 button protocol ? Do they still exist or has MS done it again?
Thanks for your help...
