+<PRE>On Monday 12 Sep 2011 07:08 my mailbox was graced by a message from Renaud
+(Ron) Olgiati who wrote:
+&gt;<i> Found a solution on an Ubuntu list/blog:
+</I>&gt;<i> Seems the problem comes from a new default onfig of evdev, which no longer

+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Section &quot;InputClass&quot;

+</I>&gt;<i> Option &quot;Emulate3Buttons&quot; &quot;on&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> EndSection
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I read (but did not check, not a Gnome user) that under gnome

+</I>
+Another solution is to install xinput,
+find the mane of your mouse with
+
+<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">ron at localhost</A>:~ $ xinput --list
+......
+&#9116; &#8627; Logitech USB Trackball id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
+
+list the properties with
+<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">ron at localhost</A>:~ $ xinput list-props &quot;Logitech USB Trackball&quot;
+ Device 'Logitech USB Trackball':
+......
+ Evdev Middle Button Emulation (257): 0
+
+and change the property with
+<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">ron at localhost</A>:~ $ xinput set-prop &quot;Logitech USB Trackball&quot; &quot;Evdev Middle
+Button Emulation&quot; 1
+
+
+Cheers,
