PS/2 mouse thumb button not working

[Phatmikey]

Hi all,

 

I've been using OS X on my hackintosh for about 7 months now, with my cordless Logitech keyboard and mouse connected to a USB port.

 

I've recently bought a second PC, and have to use a PS/2 KVM, so I've connected my Logitech wireless adapter to the PS/2 ports (via the KVM), after some problems with Kalyway, I have just installed iAtkos 2.0i, and the PS/2 keyboard and mouse are both working.

 

Unfortunately, Logitech Control Centre will not recognise the keyboard and mouse, so I can't map the thumb button to 'Command + ['. I've also tried Steermouse, but that isn't working either.

 

Is there any other way of making the thumb button of a PS/2 mouse act as a 'back button'?

 

Thanks, Mike.

Me again.

 

I found an app called ControllerMate, and decided to try that.

 

I found out that OSX is recognising the thumb button as 'Button 4', and I was able to map it to 'Command + [', unfortunately ControllerMate had other weird side effects and made my system unstable, so I won't be shelling out the $15 to register it.

 

Does anyone know of a way to use 'Button 4' as a 'back button', either natively in the OS, or through some utility or driver?

 

Or is there any way to get Logitech Control Centre to recognise my mouse on the PS/2 port?

 

Ta.
