Interesting. I was using the Gnome wm, but switched to good old fluxbox and it worked fine (also works without a wm as Peter suggested). That is, it correctly set Emulate3Buttons from my xorg.conf.d file. So the question is, why/how is gnome turning it off? Not really an X11 question, but maybe someone here knows. _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
