Left & right together has no effect here too, I need to push the wheel button.
Is this not the true 3-button mouse setup?
This is default I get most of the times for Linux installs. For me this sometimes cause trouble, since the wheel button easily unintended could be pushed.
From what files is xfce4-mouse-settings getting it's information, resp. to what files are changes written? Regarding to the buttons the GUI only displays right handed and left handed. There should be a file, not xorg.conf, that includes settings for the buttons.
The copy and paste buffer used by highlight and click is available even if you just use xterm in your .xinitrc, so I imagine the configuration for it would be somewhere in xorg.conf.d/ .
Peter, could you test out your configuration with just Xserver and xterm instead of a full manager? Could you also please run xev, and when the white square appears, click in the box with the various combinations of clicking that you use (e.g. one left click, one right click, one middle click) and post the relevant output? Do let us know the combination of button presses that you use. I did actually come up in X with 2 xterminals when i first installed this and had a play and C & P was not working then i will have a play in Xev and see what happens and get back to you
MAQ.
I suspect that Pete's mouse has got no middle click [1]. FWIW on my system there are no entries regarding to the mouse in .xinitrc and xorg.conf.d/.
No the Logitech Marble MOuse has 4 buttons and a big ball the 2 larger buttons are the standard mouse buttons the 2 smaller ones are supposed to be backwards and forwards (web browser use ) the ball has no click function so in some respects it is a 2 button mouse (i do not use the 2 small buttons at all)
Regards,
Ralf
