6 button moused?

Hi all!
I have a Logitech Cordless Optical mice and it has a fancy 6th button
place where your finger usually is on a mice. In windows, this button
is mapped to the "back" button in explorer, quite handy.
However, I can't map the button to anything in X11. xev(1) tells me no
event is generated from the mouse click. Here is my XF86Config
relevant section:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "Buttons" "6"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
So this part is ok: all the other buttons work fine, the mousewhell
and al. But no even is generated from the sixth button, and I suspect
moused(8) to be the guilty party.
I'll try to run X11 without moused and /dev/sysmouse so I see if it
works without moused. I think I remember making this work before.
Does moused(8) make assumptions on the number of mice buttons? Has
anyone been able to make those 6th buttons work?
Thanks for any input,
A.
