Comment 25 for bug 54191

Yes, i have xserver 1.7.6.

The fdi thingy does not work any longer (it used to work in Ubuntu 9.10 - xserver 1.6.4).
lshal gives
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_46d_c00e_noserial_if0_logicaldev_input'
[...]
  input.product = 'Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse' (string)
  input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons = 'false' (string)
  linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event8' (string)
[...]
which looks good but does not change anything. Hal is dead, no?

I am quite happy with the workaround of pressing the middle button to stop this. But only since i found out by accident!
When you search the web, there are quite a few people struggling with this (whoa, fedora user from 2004: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=15704 )

Shouldn't Emulate3Buttons be off from the start when i have 3 buttons already?
