My MX500 is working just fine. Here what I do: - Install imwheel (/usr/ports/x11/imwheel)
- Add this to ~/.imwheelrc ".*" None, Up, Alt_L|Left,1 None, Down, Alt_L|Right,1 "(null)" None, Up, Alt_L|Left,1 None, Down, Alt_L|Right,1 - In my x.org <http://x.org/> file.. For the InputDevice section: Option "Buttons" "7" Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" - Finaly, I run these two commands on Xwindows start: imwheel -b "67" & xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5" It works #1 with my logitech MX500 mouse (I tested on xfce4 and kde). The only problem I have is that my app button is not working but I wasn't using it in windows anyway so I don't need it. The tumbs buttons are working #1 in Firefox and Konqueror.
