Do you have -emulate3buttons set on your server? If so, you need to press
buttons 1 and 2 (left and right) at the same time to emulate the
middle/third button.
It doesn't sound like this is what you want, so make sure you're not
starting X with this parameter (check your startup script).
Otherwise, what type of mouse and mouse driver do you have? Some drivers
will change the behavior of the middle button so X doesn't recognize it.
