Just loaded up SLES on my Raspberry Pi. Trying to figure out where to switch the mouse buttons as I am Left Handed. Can someone point me to the correct place, I cannot find it.

Thanks

Hi  
Use xmodmap, so open a xterm and run;

```auto
xmodmap -e "pointer = 3 2 1"
```

If that works for you, then just add the above command into ~/.profile
