yes. it appears (but i'm not 100% sure) that our mouse code uses "1 3 2" 
button encoding (left middle right), and usb hid seems to use "1 2 3" 
button encoding. it seems like generic mouse button mapping code 
(similar to moused(8)) would be nice to have.

yes, but this does not work on console (like you said it only works in X).

thanks,
