if you want to change the mouse button sequence in console also you can
give gpm the -B option :)
from man gpm :
   -B sequence
          Set  the  button  sequence.  `123'  is  the  normal
          sequence, `321' can be used by left-handed  people,
          and `132' can be useful with two-button mice (espe-
          cially within Emacs). All the  button  permutations
          are allowable.
