Re: [CentOS] Multi-button mice and Linux?

Does anyone here use a multi-button (as in more than 2) mouse with Linux? How well supported are they? I've had to get one recently for work. I was diagnosed with CTS and I now wear braces and use a wireless Intellimouse. Works great at work with Windows, but I'm unsure how much, if any support there is for Linux. Anyone have experience with this?

I am writing this on a SuSE 8.2 Box, kernel 2.4.20 (i.e. older Linux), using a Kensington optical mouse w/ 3 buttons (w/ a USB-to-PS/2 adapter), the middle one both button & roller. I hot-swapped it a few months ago when the old one croaked & was off to the races, not a hint of problems since. YMMV & all that.
