I managed to fight through a triple boot install of xp, osx and bt3b but now i notice that although i can right click on, say, the desktop and get the backtrack menu (no longer on the toolbar in the install?) when i am in an xterm i cannot right click to copy paste. this is really annoying!
the live cd did allow me to right click
also it gives me nice shortcuts for the konsole and the menu right there, but ny main gripe about the install is the right click feature with my macbook.
thanks guys keep up the good work

I need to mention that i was using an external keyboard mouse with my macbook and real install. yes i was able to get the right click backtrack menu w access to the programs, but now there is a real problem.

I cannot access right click menu on macbook without an external mouse. The macbook of course has no right click button, instead you use cntrl click. well i tried that and a bunch of other keys on the board.

This is critical because without right click on the real install, there is no access to ANY PROGRAMS. there is no menu shortcut on the toolbar, no konsole shrtcut. Maybe i am not using the right command to right click.
