Window manager: windowmaker
What were you trying to do?
paste using the mouse
What's wrong:
its impossible since it is only a 2 button mouse
What should have happened:
you should have 3 button mouse emulation enbabled in xfree86 so that pasting is possible in X
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
uncomment "emulate3buttons" in /etc/X11/XF86Config
also, is it me, or is the video extremely slow on the new linux athena boxes... the old sparcs are faster at moving windows around, but these machines are running at 550 mhz.
thanks
