- Hi Netters
-
- Any Moussystems compatible 3-button mouse does work with X.
- Except the expensive ones. Why? They have no switch to
- choose between ms-compatble 2-button mode to 3-button mode, but
- do this by software (msdos-software, of course), normally
- their standard-mode is ms (of course). Some friends of mine
- have this Problem (3 Buttons, but can only use 2 of them).
-
- So my Tip:
- - Only buy a 3-button mouse if it has a switch!
- - Don't spend more than $20.
