Mouse buttons aren't bound to actions globally, but in each
individual program. I think the easiest way to get what
you want would be:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 4 5 2"
i.e. change the mouse button mappings to:
Actual button Reported button
1 1
2 3
3 4
4 5
5 2
so that then the default bindings work as expected. You'ld
have to re-run that every time you login - I'm not sure what
file GNOME provides for putting commands like that in.
