Description: This is basically a simple three button mouse (the scroll wheel can be "clicked", so I consider it the middle button).

There's a funky little "Quick Switch" button below the wheel. I haven't gotten it to do anything yet, but I haven't really tried.

Works flawlessly, even without using any mouse-specific driver. "Generic 3-Button Mouse USB" is the driver I am using, with no faults whatsoever in the mouse or button operations.

I will also say that this mouse has a superb optical engine; not even the fastest movement causes the cursor to have distorted motion.

No problems at all, the only thing that doesnt work (or i havent figured out how to make it work) is the little button at the top of the wheel. Besides that it works flawlessly.

Every aspect of this mouse works perfect with Linux. Make sure you add the z-axis line to xorg.conf for your middle scroll wheel to work.
