I'm using a atari compatible 3 button optical mouse with my TT. The program
to control the emulation mode is /usr/bin/msconfig. Just put "msconfig off"
in your startup config.
Unfortunately I don't know where to buy a atari compatible 3 button mouse
today. I purchased it from another guy one or two years ago...
