Hi,

I am assuming that you mean the XP control panel however I cannot see any 
option for middle button emulation.
I an using the following command to start X
        XWin -nodecoration -clipboard

Some further information:

The mouse is a logitech MX600 laser cordless which has an additional rocker 
switch and button next to the left button, two thumb buttons on the side and 
the wheel also moves side to side for horizontal scrolling

I am using the logitech setpoint utility within XP with the default settings, 
although these were also used on the previous setup.

Cut and paste from a X-window to XP is working correctly but not the other way 
round as does scrolling within a terminal window.

Running 'xev' to capture mouse and keyboard events I see button press and 
release events for buttons -
1 - Left button
3 - Right button
4 - Scroll wheel forward
5 - Scroll wheel backward
6 - Side button 1
7 - Side button 2

I also see key events for the remaining rocker and button normally used for 
zooming in & out and return to 100% from within XP.

I do not see any events when I click the wheel, presumably these would be 
button 2.
There are also no events when I move the wheel sideways but I did not really 
expect any.

It would appear that everything is working correctly except for middle button 
clicks not being recognised by the X server

Thanks
Steve

        Please check your Control Panel Mouse settings to verify that you do 
not have "middle button emulate" enabled, which can mess with the second 
button, or anything else that might be re-interpreting the buttons.

        As a workaround, try using <ctrl-insert> to paste.  this works for me 
both from X and Windows apps on XP.


        HTH,

Mike
