make sure the mouse protocol is one that supports the extra signals.

for XFree 4, assuming your mouse uses the ps/2 connector:

| Section "InputDevice"
|         Identifier  "Mouse0"
|         Driver      "mouse"
|         Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
|         Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"
|         Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
|         Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
| EndSection

XFree 3:

| Section "Pointer"
|         Protocol      "IMPS/2"
|         Device        "/dev/psaux"
|         Buttons       5
|         ZAxisMapping  4 5
| EndSection

if your protocol is only "ps/2", then XFree won't see the extra
buttons at all.
