Stew,

I'm grasping at straws here.  I'm trying to figure out why X is giving me
errors with the mouse when I try to test the graphic mode.  This happens in
both XFdrake outside of X and with MCC in X.  Otherwise, the mouse is
working fine.

BTW, thanks A MILLION!!! for the 3 button emulation lines.  It's nice to be
able to use the context menus.


Thanks again,

AH
