Try editing sysctl.conf as follows:

#
# /etc/sysctl.conf - Configuration file for setting system variables
# See sysctl.conf (5) for information.
#
#kernel.domainname = example.com
#net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts=1
# 3-button mouse emulation
     # turn on emulation
     /dev/mac_hid/mouse_button_emulation = 1
     # Send middle mouse button signal with the F11 key
     /dev/mac_hid/mouse_button2_keycode = 87
     # Send right mouse button signal with the F12 key
     /dev/mac_hid/mouse_button3_keycode = 88
     # For different keys, use showkey to tell you what the code is

Regards

Clive
