Thanks, Shahar. For some reason I did not get your mail, I only see it
in the reply. Could you tell me to where it was addressed, I wonder
how much other mail I'm missing.

The mouse works, and does show up in xinput. Only the two Zoom buttons
do not work. I've tried remapping the buttons but nothing got any
output from those Zoom buttons.

✈ganymede:~$ aptitude show xorg
Package: xorg
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Version: 1:7.5+6ubuntu3

I also tried on a Debian Squeeze partition, I'm not sure what version
x.org was there but according to distrowatch it should have been
1.7.7.
