X, middle mouse,Artec, do see output in /dev/mouse

Hi,

I've two mice here who's middle mouse button I cannot get to work
under X. However, cat-ing /dev/mouse shows that i do get output:


left button:
muso:/dev# cat  mouse |od -x
0000000 0060 4000 0000 0060 4000 0000 0060 4000

Middle button:
muso:/dev# cat  mouse |od -x
0000000 0040 4000 0000 0040 4000 0000 0040 4000

right button:
muso:/dev# cat  mouse |od -x
0000000 0050 4000 0000 0050 4000 0000 0050 4000

So, it seems like it should be possible for X to detect
midle mouse presses.

For a mouse that does have a working middle button under X, I get,
in the same order:
0000000 0060 4000 0000 0060 4000 0000 0060 4000
0000000 0040 2000 0040 0000 0040 2000 0040 0000
0000000 0050 4000 0000 0050 4000 0000 0050 4000

So, that is slightly different. Does anyone know how to make the
mouse work?
(I tried about every possible Pointer setting in XF86Config, but nothing
works).

ii  xserver-common  3.3.3.1-10     files and utilities common to all X servers
ii  xserver-s3      3.3.3.1-10     X server for S3 chipset-based graphics cards

Thanks,
