Dune 2 runs nicely and easily for me except for one thing: when I click my mouse (Logitech USB corded optical) nothing happens. I have to press enter or spacebar. I'm not sure how I would right-click using the keyboard.

This isn't an issue in other games (Street Rod 2, X-COM). If it helps, I'm running Ubuntu Linux on an Advent 6422 laptop (1300Mhz, 192MB memory) and using DosBox 0.65.

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening here?

Did you try CTRL-F10?

Yep! No go. It doesn't seem to make a difference.

Again, it's strange because the mouse works fine for other games.

Funny. Same here. Any solution yet?

EDIT: That was embarrassing: replying to a 14-year old post 🤣

Could you describe your environment ?

Dune II is speed sensitive, maybe try slowing the CPU/cycles down?
