I don't know if this really helps but I read in the Red Hat docs: ================================================================== Tip To change your mouse configuration after you have completed the installation of Red Hat Linux,become root; then use the /usr/sbin/mouseconfig command from a shell prompt. To configure your mouse to work as a left-handed mouse, reset the order of the mouse buttons. To do this, after you have booted your Red Hat Linux system, type gpm -B 321 at the shell prompt. You can also change this setting in GNOME by going to the main menu and selecting Programs => Settings=> Peripherals => Mouse. In KDE, select Preferences => Peripherals => Mouse. =================================================================== regards, John Kelly - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
