and the strangest thing happened... I went home yesterday after trying
out yet another bunch of xorg.conf configuration combination. I was full
of frustration of my new expensive mouse that I couldn't get working.

The mouse didn't work when I went home but it worked when I got back
this morning.

I have *no* glue how that can happen?

This is the xorg configuration that made it for me (with both mice at
the same time). Just let it simmer for a night before testing:

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier                "Logitech MX1000"
    Driver                    "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"         "auto"
    Option "Device"           "/dev/input/mouse0"
    Option "ZAxisMapping"     "4 5"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons"  "no"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier                "Logitech G7"
    Driver                    "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"         "auto"
    Option "Device"           "/dev/input/mouse1"
    Option "Buttons"          "8"
    Option "ZAxisMapping"     "4 5 7 8"
    Option "Emulate3Buttons"  "no"
EndSection

Thanks a lot for all of the responses :-)
