Check your XF86Config, the mouse config should look like that Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" # Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on" # Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Depending on your mouse the device option and protocol option could vary, if you have only 2 buttons the emulate3buttons options would be uncommented.
