Otherwise, the computer was hanging with the config file stored in the /etc/X11/ directory or any subdirectory (xorg.conf.d) under it. I was reading about the precedence that xwindows uses when looking for the config files, does this have something to do also with the time the config file is loaded and applied to the settings? This is the only thing I can think of that would cause this to work for me now. I'm using the same file I used in that directory it's just in the /usrshare/X11/xorg.conf.d directory now. I feel this bug should have been addressed in the actual releases by now (since 2010 has been known). It was very disconcerting to attempt another install of ubuntu and have to go through this problem again a year later.

I applied the following fix for the bug (Bug #615892) that was shown to work on my earlier 12.x install. The problem is that now the computer appears to hang after the initial ubuntu loading screen with the dots underneath the logo after it goes dark. If I remove the file I created to remap the buttons I can use ubuntu again but I still have the button problem as described with other Saitek R.A.T. cyborg mouse users. I tried using xinput --set-button-map command it when I check to see if it changes the button mapping it does not. I am very confused by this. Can anyone help? Thanks.
