Hi, my name is Jason and I'm a Linux newbie....

I just installed Mandrake 9.0 today and I'm wondering something. My mouse is a Microsoft InetelliMouse Optical. It has 5 buttons and I've become quite used to using them. My question is are their drivers available for me to regain the use of the the "extra" buttons?

So far except for this, which is only annoying because of habbits, Mandrake is working out great. Haven't had a single hitch in the get-along ;)

Thanks for any help.

As fars as I know, if it's not underMouse configure when you set up ML 9.0. - there's no support for it.

My Logitech 2 Button + Scroll Wheel - Optical is set up under
PS-2 type.

I can use 2 button's and scroll wheel.
