Hi thanks for the advice. I have altered my xorg.conf accordingly and
rebooted. However the buttons still don't function as expected and the
don't seem to do anything. Maybe this is because this is a USB mouse?
I have attached the relevant section of my xorg file, just to double
check it says what it should say:

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier	"Configured Mouse"
	Driver		"mouse"
	Option		"CorePointer"
	Option		"Device"		"/dev/input/mice"
	Option		"Protocol"		"ExplorerPS/2"
	Option		"ZAxisMapping"		"4 5"
	Option		"Emulate3Buttons"	"false"
	Option		"Buttons"		"7"
	Option		"ButtonMapping"		"1 2 3 6 7"
