Countour (3 button) mouse

Hi,

	I use LinuxPPC R5 on a PowerBook G3 with a Contour 3-button mouse. 
Unfortunately it is not recognised as a three-button-device, the middle and
right button both give a ButtonPress event for button 1 upon the first and a
ButtonRelease event upon the second click.  `mousemode 3 4' doesn't work; the
handler remains set to 102.

I know that this mouse does in fact work with all three buttons, because it did
out of the box with MkLinux DR3-something.

Can anybody help me to resolve this issue?

Thanks, Albrecht.
