Mouse button problems using Logitech NX80

[Matija Šuklje]

Hullo,

For my birthday I got a Logitech NX80 mouse and I'm having problems setting it 
up on X.

What I found out about the mouse:  
- wireless  
- laser (resolution: 1000) 
- has standard left and right mouse buttons — buttons 1 and 3 as usual 
- wheel has two speeds/tractions which are triggered by pressing the wheel — 
buttons 4 and 5 as usual 
- wheel can tilt and therefore scroll horizontally — buttons 7 and 6 (yes, 
they're inverted!) 
- pressing the wheel changes the (mechanical) speed of the wheel — button 2 is 
missing 
- there are two additional buttons on the far right front corner — buttons 8 
and 9 
- 'xmodmap' claims that the mouse has 12 buttons (and evdev somewhere between 
12 and 20); although I could detect only buttons 1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 with 'xev' 
(as I list them above)
- for some odd reason, Emulate3Buttons doesn't work (anymore. I think it 
worked two days ago)

Problems I have and want to solve: 

a) since button 2 is missing, I need some other button (preferably 9) to take 
the place of the "middle mouse button" 

b) fix the wheel tilting, so tilting to the right actually scrolls to the 
right (instead of left as is the current state) 

c) at the *very* _least_, if a) and b) cannot be done (yet), for a while just 
having "Emulate3Buttons" work, would make life easier ;)

I've already RTFM'ed what I could find but still couldn't get it done. Here's 
what I tried (and failed miserably) so far: 
- switching to Driver "mouse" — mouse doesn't even work anymore (at least on 
Protocols "PS/2", "IMPS/2" and "Explorer PS/2") 
- using Option "ZAxisMapping" — had no effect neither with Options "Buttons" 
nor "ButtonNumber" 

Here's the relevant /etc/X11/xorg.conf section:
<snip>
 Section "InputDevice"

 EndSection

I'm currently running (on Gentoo AMD64 stable):
xorg-server 1.3.0.0
xf86-input-evdev 1.1.5

Any help would be appreciated.
