    Hmmm... the joys of no documentation....

    Can you
    grab http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~neilb/D800/mouseplay.c
    compile it
    boot into a 2.4 kernel
    Disable gpm and get out of X
    run mouseplay capturing the output
    e.g. mouseplay | tee /tmp/m.out
    perform various mouse action, particularly the buttons
    annotate /tmp/m.out to tell me what you did when,
    send m.out to me.

    Thanks,
    NeilBrown
