I still can't make sense out of the pin assignments on the amiga joystick port.  The pin I use for the second fire button is labeled MOUSE BUTTON 3, but mouse button 2 on the actual mouse seems to work as the second fire button if I use my mouse instead of a joystick.  If my fire button is connected to the MOUSE BUTTON 2 pin, it does nothing.

@cammy
     Thanks much. The links you added help too. You and tenacious helped a lot. I finally understand what's going on.

Actually I should say thanks to everyone. I got a lot of help on this one.

Without thinking the other day, I inserted a Majesco made Genesis 6-button controller into my A3000. Those were the ones with the switch for rapid-fire/slow motion and came rather late in the Genny's life. Late 90's IIRC. Anywho, must have blown something in the CIA chip responsible for recognizing a 2-button controller in Port 1. Nothing wrong with mouse at all though. Glad I have a few CIA's laying around  :)
