Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / December 2003

I just got an email from an old friend. She has a beachball iMac (17" I
think- I haven't seen it for a few weeks). It was running 10.2.6 or
thereabouts. She was using a Logitech three button and scroll mouse.

Her brother (who generally knows what he's doing) upgraded her to Panther.

Her email continues:

*****************
Of
course it is wonderful and powerful and everything a panther should be but
it swallowed my logimouse system so that the right hand button no longer
operates word and spelling and all those plebian things i really use.

Panther uses the right hand switch to bounce across the screen spreading
programmes out and it also does a bit of darkening too.  This is rather
alarming and quite useless - at least for me - since unlike other computer
users i spend a lot of time writing.

I have reloaded logimouse  and contemplated downloading new software.  I
have tried to adjust the mouses controls too and I am wondering if there is
brain surgery I can perform - say dropping mouseware on top of the
panther's controls - sounds risky - don't want to be bitten - what do you
think?

*****************

What I think is that I should ask here.

Looks like she has the right click mapped to F9 or whatever Expose uses.

I really wouldn't like to get into Archive and Reinstall here... But it
looks as though the Panther install has broken something. What a surprise.
