Again: 3-Button-Mice

Hi all,

	please excuse me if I bother again with an old issue---I have a PowerBook
G3/300 with a 3-button Countou Mouse (adb) attached to it, but I am not able to
get all three buttons running.  dmesg tells me

adb devices: [2]: 2 c4 [3]: 3 66 [7]: 7 1f [15]: 3 1
...
ADB mouse at 3, handler 1
ADB mouse at 15, handler set to 4 (trackpad)
ADB mouse at 3, handler 1
ADB mouse at 15, handler set to 4 (trackpad)
ADB keyboard at 2, handler 1
Macintosh ADB mouse driver installed.

I tried to alter the handler of device #3 using mousemode, but without success:

[root at pc128 /root]# /sbin/mousemode 3 4
handler for addr 3 was 102
trying to set handler to 4...
handler is now 102

I run the accelerated video driver for the atyfb device (from linux 2.3); might
this be connected with my problem?

Thanks for any help, Albrecht.
