Can I use my five-button mouse in linux??


Hey, I've got a five-button mouse with a wheel and wheel button, but I can't seem to use either of the two side buttons. Is there anything I can configure so that I can use them?? Or at least for going back and forth between web pages in linux??


VITAL INFO:

DISTRO: MDK 9.1
MOUSE: M$ INTELLIMOUSE OPTICAL
