No, it doesn't work perfectly, because you have a three button mouse, and now you have told your computer that it only has two buttons. It may be working, but you have effectively limited the abilities of your mouse.
I switched it to Generic Two-Button Mouse, and it still didn't work. I switched it then to Generic Wheel Mouse and it worked, then switched it to Microsoft Intellimouse and it continued to work.

Hi List,
I am having problems with using my mouse in text mode. It works fine in XFree86. But in text mode, every time that the mouse is moved, it's drawn like a magnet to the top right corner, and acts as if I'm clicking buttons repeatedly (basically the same as if there is an intermittent break in the mouse cord). If I leave the mouse alone, it doesn't interfere. Then again, it doesn't help either.
I have Microsoft IntelliMouse 1.2A.
Does anybody have any ideas on this? If not, I'm going to commit it as a bug.
Thanks, William
