>I am trying to configure the buttons on my Microsoft serial mouse (2
button) to do copy and paste functions when in the XFree86 environment. When
I first boot up RH5.0 and before entering startx the mouse buttons work the
way I would like, with the left mouse button highlighting text I want to
copy and then the right mouse button pasting that highlighted text.

click the right mouse button the whole line of text is highlighted instead
of getting pasted at an insertion point.

Hmm... I don't know, but it sounds like X Windows is using the mouse
independantly from Linux.
