That's good to know. Now that you mention it, I previously had a Contour UniMouse and, if I recall correctly, I did not have to enable emulation then. Unfortunately, I also very much wanted to exchange the left and right buttons (using the mouse with my left hand), and so needed an OS X driver that would do that. As far as I know, Kensington was the first (and perhaps only so far). And, for some reason, Kensington's scroll wheel click wouldn't be interpreted as button 2. Hence the emulation.
[So why are some people having trouble with cut and paste if Paul and I have done it with so little trouble? Is it the fact that we have 2 button scroll mice?] -Don At 3:04 PM -0800 2/8/02, Paul Lieberman wrote: >I have a Logitech scroll mouse. I do NOT enable emulation in XDarwin.
