the instructions on his site should apply to any mouse with 5 buttons or
even 7. you are using xmodmap, like this (in your .xinitrc):
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5" &
plus an entry in your XF86Config:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Buttons" "7"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
EndSection
now, you can let go of the "Explorer" part and give it a shot, to my
mind it shouldn't matter. of course if it doesn't work, just put it back
to normal (your system even keeps a backup of your old XF86Config for
you to rename and use).
Personally, it seemed to wreak havoc with my WM and mousewheeling thru
desktops, so I commented it out for now. I'll give it a shot later.
