Here is for another mouse , but still take a look :

Installing Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer

Here is how I configured my MS Optical Explorer mouse:

- first, modify the xorg.conf file

Code:

Section "InputDevice"

Identifier "USB Mouse"

Driver "mouse"

Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"

Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

Option "Buttons" "7"

Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"

EndSection

- then you have to create the file /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/mouse with the following content:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

# /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/mouse

# Required for the configuration of a 5-button mouse

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5"

This file correctly configures the buttons. You have to set this file executable:

Code:

chmod +x /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/mouse

And that should work. You can try Firefox, which manages side buttons natively.

ps . jeżeli coś żle działa możecie spr?bować tak :

f so, modify the /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/mouse file:

Code:

xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7"

Then restart Xorg...
