It's really not necessary write 3 emails about this, and certainly doesn't get you a reply any faster. I can't reproduce this problem. Are you using a 3-button mouse? Does removing -emulate3buttons help? Is this a local xterm process, or one on a remote computer you are connecting to? Is it only xterm which doesn't respond to mouse buttons or are other programs affected? > A couple of days ago a new version of xorg-server, 1.13.2-1, came out.

Yes, it is an unfortunate deficiency of setup that only 1 previous version is allowed. If you still have the downloaded package, you should be able to downgrade to 1.13.0-1 using the "Install from local directory" option in setup. > Could you tell me whether I am doing something wrong or it is a bug?
