mouse issues


I just installed mandrake 10.1, and I'm having a minor problem with the mouse. It seems I can't switch the buttons (right click to be left click, since I'm left handed). When I go to the controls on the KDE desktop, the field that allows me to do so is greyed out. Any thoughts on why this is or if I can change it somewhere else?
I am using a two button mouse that I had around because my newer one died on me (actually it's cord got caught on my foot and was dashed to death on my desk when I walked away) and I'm wondering if this has something to do with it.

Maybe if you edit and play around with your xorg.conf file, you can switch the numbers around.

the file is located here:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf
