I have the same and my entire button is working just great. Regarding editing config files apply it will take certain standard warning. based on evedev input.
Steps 1) to determine my system event mouse input by running these file:
# ls -lh /dev/input/by-id/
Steps 2) the result will be results:
usb-Logitech_USB_Receiver-event-mouse -> ../event2
usb-Logitech_USB_Receiver-mouse -> ../mouse1
Steps 3) install the Eve driver
# sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-evdev
Steps 4) then configure your xorg.conf. just make sure to back up all the file before editing it.
1) The Section is "ServerLayout"
The Identifier is "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "screen1" 0 0
set the InputDevice as "Generic Keyboard"
set the InputDevice as"Logitech MX620"
EndSection
2) second Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Logitech MX620"
Driver "evdev"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2"
Option "Resolution" "800"
Option "RelHWHEELMapTo" "Buttons 7 6"
EndSection
I hade this problem Logitech USB Optical Mouse on a Fedora 9 system. There was problem with my mouse it doesn’t move in the Gnome GUI and the button wouldn’t work. Then I found the suggestion similar to the mty620 in the fedora forum (a linux based O.S) same as ubunto. I disabled the Xserver and then ran "Xorg --configure" as root. It produced several errors. Then I created an xorg.conf.new file which has a section for mouse.
Then I entered these in /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. The Xorg configuration setup .:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "single head configuration"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
...
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
...
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
...
EndSection
