Dave,
I'm having the same kind of mouse: 2 buttons and a central scroll
weel.
xev shows exactly the responses you are describing.
thanks,
Bernard

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.
