I tried setting this option and restarting pbbuttonsd, but when I type
"snooze" I get "connect: Connection refused".  Do I need to do
anything more to get pbbuttonsd to take over this pmud functionality?

Any hints for how to accomplish this with a single-button ADB mouse?
In LinuxPPC option-click (instead of middle click) did it but this
doesn't work in YDL, at least not in the default setup.  Is there some
xmodmap and/or syctl magic needed?  I'd really like to get this
working again, especially since the keyboard- and menu-based copy and
paste is inconsistent and doesn't work with all apps.
