But it's a very cool mouse! Tell the accountants you need one :)
FWIW from:
http://www.linuxnewbie.org/nhf/intel/hardware/intellimouseexplorer.html
change in XF86Config-4
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
& I put in KDE autostart:
#!/bin/sh
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5"
& buttons work fine for PS/2, now just got to figure out what to use
them for :) (& how to make it work with USB).
