[ale] SOVLED: Re: [ale] mouse reconfig

[Gene Matthews]

Thanks, Jim and Thomas for your replies.  It was the XF86Config-4 file. 
      Once I changed it there and restarted X, all was well.  Having the 
third button (via emulation or otherwise) certainly makes it easier to 
do stuff.

Thanks again,

Gene
