right. i didn't know if that meant "beehaavve likeee yoou have 3
buttons, regardless if you do or not" or just "emulate 3 buttonss,
even if you don't." so i selected it. it's unseleected now, and nno
appareent differrence, except nwo i can passte in X with either aaa
simlutaneous click or a midddle-button click.
> BTW, what rat do you use?
justt the hp one that came with my 9680C paavvilion a year oor two
ago -- two buttons, scrolly wheel ... definiiitely meant for use with
micro$oft, as was thhhe whole system. but i now haaaaaaaave a big
"UNX" sticker on it, hahaaa, and theee "desssigned for microsoft
windows 98" sticker has been ppeeled of and traashed. :)
> And what window manager?
Window Maker. i like it.
with all this upgrading, though, as you can see, my keyboard's now
stuupppppidd and ridiculously sensssitivee, esssspecially on some
kkkeys (aaa, s, k, e, &c.). the backsspace key also ffunctions
ridiculously fast ... how do i reeeeconfigure this?
