I've had a G5 for quite awhile, and I can't seem to get the thumb buttons to work as other mice have worked.
My problem is that I want the two thumb buttons to work like the left/right/middle mouse buttons do. If I bind something to one of those buttons, it works to hold the key press until I release it. So if I bind crouch to mouse 2, it keeps a game in crouch until I release. However, if I bind crouch to either of the thumb buttons, it does not hold the crouched state. It crouches for a half second and comes right back up even if I hold the key down.
I have tried changing the function of these two keys in Set Point to other keys to see if that might help (I have them set for normal windows as forward and back for the browser). Still does the same thing.
I'm running Vista 64.
If I can't figure this out, I'm going to have to go mouse shopping as it's driving me crazy.
