18 Hi Mark,
19
20 I have the same mouse and it works flawless with the following settings:
21
22 Section "InputDevice"
23 Identifier "Mouse0"
24 Driver "mouse"
25 Option "Protocol" "auto"
26 Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
27 Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
28 Option "Buttons" "8"
29 Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7 8 9"
30 EndSection
31
32 I also want to point you to http://razertool.sourceforge.net/ - a very
33 handy tool to change settings ;-)
