Does that button actually work? One way to test that is to open the
mouse preferences, and use the test gadget to see if all the buttons
provoke a response.
I've got two mice that have been resoldered many times, because they
fall off the desk and hit the middle mouse button/wheel and damage its
connection.

Hi Tim,
It does work as it works in Windows.
Likewise, I know there is nothing physically wrong with the touchpad.
I've had it suggested that I should try a Live DVD from another dist to see if
