I use a Microsoft Optical Trackball 'Mouse'. I have it set up in Suse Pro 9.1
as a Intellimouse Explorer on a PS/2 port. It works fine including the wheel
for scrolling and you can press it which is the same as pressing a middle
mouse button.
It works very well and once I got use to it I found it a lot more comfortable
to use over long periods, although I know some people have a pathological
aversion to them!
