I hate to be one who suggests throwing hardware at a problem, but while this
is an interesting programming issue, my suggestion to anyone thinking of
running Linux or BSD of any flavor or window manager on Apple hardware would
be to invest in a new mouse/trackball -- unless there are driver issues in
NetBSD/mac68k, MKLinux or any of the PPC-compatible Linux distributions of
which I am unaware. Kensington is one company producing  numerous fine
multi-button ASB products that comes to mind,  but there are many others.

Regards,
Philip D. Clyde
