Well, at least w/ my 3-button (Mouse Systems MacPoint Pro), nothing gets 
stored in "mouse memory"..  I set the buttons in MacOS control panel to 
have 2nd and 3rd do option-left and right, and when I boot into netbsd, 
they do their worthless defaults (non-option-left-arrow and right)  While 
it makes a really weird way to move around in a text editor, its left 
pretty much worthless other than that.

Survival tips:  

- learn how to configure your WM, and put all important stuff that you want 
  in your root window off of the 1st button (hierachical menus if you 
  have a lot of stuff)
- Install Xaw-3d.. you can get it from 
  ftp.uni-regensburg.de:/pub/NetBSD-Amiga/contrib/X/  (I think)..  It 
  gives you 3D widgets which look better, and more importantly, give you
  xterm (and other) scrollbars which move on button 1

There's lots of other stuff I've found helps..  Someone write me if they 
want me to make up a "One-Button X-Windows Survival Guide"
