Xorg is able to auto-detect this mouse just fine. However, it has a 17 key mapping:
Edit your mouse section to say something like:
Next install the following packages
We'll put all of the settings into ~/.xbindkeysrc
You'll want to put in ~/.xbindkeysrc events to send to xvkbd. Here is a sample:
For some reason some combinations of keyboard events refuse to work with certain buttons for me.
m:0x0 refers to your first mouse. The '+b:8' refers to the button you push. Here is a list of all the buttons:
To remap the seach button to something instead of search, put something along the lines of the following into ~/.xbindkeysrcExample here is to remap it to alt+f4 to close a window.
Alternatively, Gnome will recognize the small middle search button as a keyboard event. Thus, you just have to go into keyboard shortcuts and remap that to something. This is probably the most reliable way to go about using this key.
It is possible to use xmodmap to register the button press as a middle click. Begin by assigning the key event to Pointer_Button 2.
Now, just create a startup script that feeds that input into xmodmap when your window manager starts. In KDE4 create ~/.kde4/Autostart/middleclick with the following contents.
And do not forget to give it execute permissions.
The trick only works when 'mousekeys' are on. So either gnome-keyboard-properties -> Mousekeys -> Enable pointer OR toggle with SHIFT-ALT-NUMLOCK (you want to be able to toggle so you can use the numeric keypad at times). Or in KDE System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Mouse -> Mouse Navigation -> Check 'Move pointer with keyboard (using the num pad)'
Lastly, add xbindkeys to your startup and you should be good to go.
The best way to map the search button to middle click is to add the following lines to
/etc/sysctl.d/50-mouse.conf
:Mouse Wheel Mode
In order to enable or disable mouse wheel's free spinning, you can use revoco2AUR. Giving the following command from shell, or, alternatively, putting it in a script executed at the startup should enable/disable free spinning.
It is also possible to remap the button to toggle between free and click.
This will free the wheel button allowing it to act as a normal mouse 3 button.

Is there a software alternative out there for Logitech SetPoint on Windows (7)? Specifically for the Logitech MX Revolution Mouse. The required features are just key mappings and configuration of the of the mouse wheel mode (this is my main goal).
The problem I have with the SetPoint software is that is a) slow b) big and c) from time to time has problems with detecting the mouse after standby.

I had that issue a while back on another PC, setpoint works fine on my current notebook however.
What I did, uninstall setpoint and installed Microsofts Intellipoint software, and installed it, found a compatible MS mouse model that worked with my Logitech buttons and functions and selected that MS model during Install during setup of the software. I think you can change the model after install if you did not select one that did not quite match during setup.
Then to further customize my buttons, I installed X-Mouse
x-mouse will not work with generic windows mouse driver, as it only intercepts the mouse click, and generic mouse driver will not have drivers for anything other than right and left click, the reason I used intellipoint.
I have not used intellipoint in a while, the older versions did not care what brand of mouse you had, if the newer versions do, look for an older version of intellipoint.

I found this software: uberOptions
uberOptions: Enable all options on all buttons in SetPoint.
It is an add-on for SetPoint which enables extra functionalities
