I am running Leopard on a 24" iMac, mid August, 2.8Ghz yada yada yada....

I keep losing my setting for dashboard to come up when the middle mouse button is clicked. I go to System Prefs>Mouse and set the middle button (scroll ball) as Dashboard.

It works for a while, but then it stops. When I go back to the prefs, it's been reset to "button 3".

Any ideas?

Thanks!

update: it seems like there's 2 places to set this option, one is under the mouse settings and one is under the Expose and Spaces settings. Maybe there's a conflict.

It happened again so I left the mouse settings as button 3 and tried changing the setting in the Expose and Spaces settings.

We'll see.
