I have a Logitech and on my lappy it works just fine

All one has to do for a lappy is fix "X11org.conf" so that it somewhet
resembles this

[cite]
Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

    Identifier	"Mouse1"
    Driver	"mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "IMPS/2"
    Option  "ZAxisMapping"     "4 5"
    Option "Device"      "/dev/mouse"

[/cite]

and fix your "rc.local" or wherever else you might like to put sundry
stuff like this 

[cite]
# enable gpm default Special commands
killall -9 gpm
/usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/mouse -t imps2 -S ""
[/cite]

if you want to "right-click-and-hold-it" + "left-click-fast three times"
then right smartly "left-click" to give the Microsoft Three Finger Salute
