I'll try this.  I had only tried mouseconfig.  And since you brought up
version, I think I am running the previous release of X, is there any
pressing reason to upgrade?

No I didn't.  I'll have to give it a try when I get back home.  I had read
something about that, but it was in reference to a bus mouse problem and
didn't think it was needed in this case.

Thanks!
