Preferred method of assigning mouse buttons

[RVDowning]

Ok folks, what is the preferred way of assigning functionality to mouse buttons. I have a Logitech MX Revolution and have in the past used btnx which I had to compile. However, because of kernel changes it no longer works with some distributions and even if it does still work, it probably won't in the near future.

 

So, I need some other way of assigning stuff to mouse buttons. Is there a "standard" or "preferred" way?

 

Forgot to say: I'm on 2009.1 with KDE 4.2.2

There's a new utility named Revoco, which of course you should test yourself ( no such mouse here ).

I used Revoco about a year ago. Revoco is only for the mouse wheel/button. It was actually also incorporated into btnx.

 

Surely somebody out there must have more than a three button mouse who wants to map the other buttons to stuff.
