One thing to try - start up xev, move the pointer into the window, and see
how it responds to mouse buttons.

The mouse I'm using is really a 2 button mouse with a central
track wheel which the X server regards as the middle button.  Turning the
wheel gives a further two 'buttons'. 

Left button               -> button 1 (i.e. left)
Depress trackwheel        -> button 2 (i.e. middle)
Right key                 -> button 3 (i.e. right)
Push trackwheel away      -> button 4 (press+release)
Pull trackwheel towards   -> button 5 (press+release)

What response does xev give to a right mouse press?  If it's an incorrect
button (e.g. button 5), you'll be able to fix things up using xmodmap.
