X 4.0 or X 3.3.6? it's all pretty well doc'd: I've got it running on a 600e, which uses the same hardware and all. hmmm... check on the linux OS links under the Thinkpad 600E: there's some explicit instructions. I think I just used a generic /dev/psaux mouse and then set the mouse to 3 buttons, and, magic, it worked.
both in X4.0 and X.3.3.6. this may not work for you, but hope it helps. Mail me privately and I can get you my exact X4.0 config file if you want... glen -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Peters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Stephen Peters Sent: Monday, March 05, 2001 12:15 PM To: Debian-laptop Subject: Extra `mouse' button on a Thinkpad T21 I've been working with getting Debian running in all its glory on an IBM Thinkpad T21, and am pretty pleased -- except for one tiny issue. The T21 has a large button with a blue marking underneath the left- and right-`mouse' buttons. Under Windows, this is used as a scroll button. I'd like to set this up as a middle mouse button, but I'm not sure how. I can't just remap it with xmodmap, since it's currently not even being read by X (tested using xev). In addition, none of the mouse configurations in gpm seem to activate it. Anyone have any ideas? -- Stephen L.
