No, I don't.

Try another protocol. Protocol has to be correct before anything else. I 
tried to use another protocol with M$ IntelliMouse. Movement, 3 buttons 
and wheel worked but not other buttons. I had to choose ExplorerPS/2 to 
make them working.

What protocol to use for Logitech would be good question for developers, 
I guess.

I have experience that if you do not see mouse button presses in xev you 
can forget it will work. I don't know of any other tool that goes more 
to the hardware.

This is question or remark for developers - I really don't know.

Just my opinion: On the contrary of Microsoft software, the Microsoft 
HARDWARE is worth the money you spend for it.
