Try adding: 

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 2" 

into your rc.local right under the mousemode statement.  It worked for me :o)

Is there any away to make the second mouse button act as the other mouse
button (right now, it's the 'paste' button).

I've tried setting it up in WindowMaker WMPrefs.app, but it only seems to
take affect to the WM desktop, and NONE of the apps/icons.

If you set emulate 3 buttons in Xconfigurator, then hitting both buttons at
once will be interperted as a middle-click.

solution for the Macally two button mouse

[Peter A. Padilla]

Just discovered the handler for the Macally two button mouse. It is 66.

In my rc.local I put "mousemode 3 66" command and now I can get the right 
button to respond.

Re: solution for the Macally two button mouse

[Scott Westbrook]

Thank so much for finding a way to get my old Macally mouse to work!  Now
that it does work correctly, is there any way to emulate the missing mouse
button without using a key on the keyboard?
