Version:            (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages
OS:                Linux

Under different Linux versions (Debian from 2006, Knoppix 4 .. 5.3) and KDE 3.5x it's impossible to change the mouse operation to left hand.
I tried it via control panel or with variation of the parameters of the mouse changing command in the terminal window.
The behavior changed a little bit but the only necessary changing between left and right button doesn't appear. I tested it with PS/2 and USB mouse.
Sometimes I had the impression - after switching to left hand mode - only to have two secondary buttons.
In some discussion forums I found hints and workarounds but nothing solves the problem.
