Hi!
Check in /proc/sys/kernel/mac_hid orsomething (not home now, can't check)
You ca activate mouse_button_emulation and determine which keycode to use
for button 2 and 3.. Keycodes are defined in include/linux/input.h I think.
Note however that on my pb3400 I've been very unlucky with kernel-powered button
emulation (as opposed to Xpmac-powered button emulation...)
