 Hello

 I have openbox working, but when I click my middle mouse button on my
 windows desktop it opens windows desktop dialog.

 On a related issue, if I use openbox and icon a window, I can not
 access the windows anymore.  Openbox on linux accesses the icon'd
 windows via the middle mouse button clicked on the desktop.

 Please advise.

Do you have -emulate3buttons set on your server?  If so, you need to press 
buttons 1 and 2 (left and right) at the same time to emulate the 
middle/third button.

It doesn't sound like this is what you want, so make sure you're not 
starting X with this parameter (check your startup script).

Otherwise, what type of mouse and mouse driver do you have?  Some drivers 
will change the behavior of the middle button so X doesn't recognize it.
