Thanks, Peter.  I had missed it, but Geoff Short's howto was already on my
box, prolly on everyone else's as well: 

/usr/doc/faq/howto/mini/3-Button-Mouse.gz

Unfortunately, ymmv: I have two 3-button mice.  Both are recognized, using
the MouseSystems protocol.  All three buttons work on the Arlec, but it
doesn't move the pointer !  (But it works on Win 95 - go figure.) The
Computec is fine, provided I hold the left button down at power up.  The 
software switches don't help.

: Cheers.
