The solution given by @GA (#49) works like a charm with R.A.T. 7 in Linux Mint 15 Olivia (32 bits) with XFCE 4.10 Desktop.
Horizontal scrolling is working! Forward and reverse buttons are working fine! lsb_release -a LSB Version: core-2.0-ia32:core-2.0-noarch:core-3.0-ia32:core-3.0-noarch:core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:core-3.2-ia32:core-3.2-noarch:core-4.0-ia32:core-4.0-noarch Distributor ID: LinuxMint Description: Linux Mint 15 Olivia Release: 15 Codename: olivia uname -a Linux blackout 3.8.0-27-generic #40-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 9 00:19:35 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux Thank you very much to @GA!!!

The mouse continues to work but all events continue to go to the active window, even when the action is outside the active window. This affects all mice on the system until you unhook the R.A.T. 7. Sometimes clicking the mouse's "Mode" button while over another application will also fix the issue. I've seen this bug using TWM,Metacity and Compiz This also seems to be an issue on Fedora 13, but is fixed in Xorg git as of 2010.08.09. I've replicated the bug in 10.04 and 10.10 alpha 3.
