Dave, I'm having the same kind of mouse: 2 buttons and a central scroll weel. xev shows exactly the responses you are describing.

One thing to try - start up xev, move the pointer into the window, and see how it responds to mouse buttons. The mouse I'm using is really a 2 button mouse with a central track wheel which the X server regards as the middle button. Turning the wheel gives a further two 'buttons'. Left button -> button 1 (i.e. left) Depress trackwheel -> button 2 (i.e. middle) Right key -> button 3 (i.e. right) Push trackwheel away -> button 4 (press+release) Pull trackwheel towards -> button 5 (press+release) What response does xev give to a right mouse press? If it's an incorrect button (e.g. button 5), you'll be able to fix things up using xmodmap.
