Try playing with button numbers. I have a MX510 and this works for me:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "ZaxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Name" "Logitech MX510"
EndSection

Okay, one more try. It looks like you're not the only one to have issues with this mouse. There's a sample config and some docs at docs.tenshu.net/Logitech-MX-Duo-mini-HOWTO/x35.html

This is the configuration we are using for a Logitech MX-1000:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "DevInputMice"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
        Option      "Buttons" "10"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection
You also need to remap the buttons. You can use xev to find out what mouse events the xserver sees, but this is what we are using. Add this line to your /etc/X11/Xmodmap file, and restart the xserver.
Code:
pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 8 9 10
You can also test it first. In a terminal type:
Code:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 8 9 10"
Here is some more info, but it looks like it requires a newer kernel version and xserver version.

I'm guessing the configuration should be similar for your Logitech MX-700
