Logitech mouse, only first button work
 
I had a problem with the mouse movement (moving only up and down) before, that got fixed after changing some values from kernel and recompiling.

Now the problem is that all the mouse buttons act like the first mouse button.. There are 4 buttons altogether (fourth on the side and scroll is the third).
Even the mouse wheel works after ZAxisMapping 4 5, but no matter what button I push it acts like the first button..
I would be happy if even only the second button worked..

Do I have to change something in the kernel again or is this a xfree problem?

Is this a usb or ps/2 mouse? Also, take a look at /etc/X11/XF86Config (or XF86Config-4) and see which protocol your mouse uses. Here's an excerpt of my XF86Config:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Configured Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
        Option          "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
EndSection
The protocol I'm using is ImPS/2 since my logitech mouse is a ps/2 mouse.

Problem solved by installing newer kernel (2.2.21)
