Actually, that's funny with my Logitech Trackball (4-button) mouse I've actually had a much better experience (performance/usability) than running the same mouse on Windows or OSX. Got draglock and better scrolling (horizontal and vertical), plus you can combine button clicks and key bindings to do whatever you like, something you can't do on Windoze or McMacs ;-) It's a fallacy that things don't work on Linux. It's also a fallacy that life is better on the other side of the fence since the user is subjected to an environment of passive non-learning -- which rears it's head when the provided GUI comes up short (oh no, now what do I do?)
