Howdy, folks!
I made a great find today at the local Goodwill- a GE wireless, optical, 4-button (plus scroll wheel button), and only $5! I got it home, and, after a reboot, it works.... sorta. I can point, click with the left button, and when I hit the right button, it acts as a control+click (which rocks!), and the scroll wheel works too.... but how do I use the other two side buttons and the scroll wheel clicker? The mouse came with a driver CD, but it's only got drivers for wintel (of course), and the GE site has no info that I can find.
Any ideas on using the extra features would be great!
Thanks a bunch,
SpaceBoy

I assume it's a USB mouse in which case you need USB overdrive to assign functions to the other buttons and such
