Need to map mouse buttons, but no xorg mouse entry? (FC7)

Hey I have a wireless mouse with 4 buttons and a scroll wheel, with which I'd like to try and get the 2 side buttons working, but I see that my xorg.conf has no entry at all for a mouse. Does this mean I need to create one, or is there some other way of configuring the mouse buttons in FC7?

Any help much appreciated.

Hello:
You can add an InputDevice Section for your mouse if you like.
Something along the following lines should get you started.
PHP Code:
Section "InputDevice"
    
Identifier  "Mouse0"
    
Driver      "mouse"
    
Option        "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
    
Option        "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
    
Option        "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
    
Option        "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection
