It doesn't always do the trick. In FreeBSD, the moused daemon (simile of
gpm on linux) only is useful with two buttons if you swap button 2 for
3, leaving the button ids as 1 and 2. On running X with the "sysmouse",
the emulate3buttons option no longer works. But if you consider that
button3 is used almost always for popups, and your keyboard probably has
a non used button with a popup menu on it, logic dictates that you
should be able to use that key to replace button3. This option is
working in xffm but is only active if your xf86config file specifies
your keyboard as pc105 (or similar).
