XMODMAP?
Most of the suggestions are similar, and I am very grateful, but I have
tried most of them them many times before. As I mentioned, I get the
scroll bars, the vertical double arrow icon when I hover in the
scrollbar, the vertical single up arrow icon when I try to drag in the
scrollbar -- but nothing actually scrolls.
I am on a powerbook, so the trackpad is my clicking device -- I guess
that is like a one-button mouse, right?
So do I have to do an xmodmap to get X11 to "see" a middle button
click? Or an up-arrow? I have done that before, to map the ALT key
correctly.

to figure out how to configure it to have scrollbars.
You cannot drag the scroollbar, but you can scroll the text inside the
window, providing that the text's length is larger than the window's
length, depending on your settings:
1 - inside the window, using the shift-top arrow, shift-bottom arrow
2 - clicking on the gray portion of the scrollbar with the third mouse
button (middle one) and then moving the mouse up and down. It scrolls
at your will.
3 - clicking on the non gray portion of the scrollbar with the second
mouse button (right one). It scrolls up of a certain amount of lines
4 - clicking on the non gray portion of the scrollbar with the first
mouse button (left one). It scrolls down of a certain amount of lines
