Mouse button 4 does scroll up, how to disable?

[Shahar Dag]

Hello

I am not sure that I have the solution for you, but it may give you some hints

first, find the device name of mouse. use 
$ xinput list | grep 'id=' 

The result will be something like :

"Virtual core pointer" id=0 [XPointer] 
"Virtual core keyboard" id=1 [XKeyboard] 
"AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" id=2 [XExtensionKeyboard] 
"Macintosh mouse button emulation" id=3 [XExtensionPointer] 
"Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse" id=4 [XExtensionPointer] 

then, remap the buttons. for example

$ xinput set-button-map "Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse" 1 1 3 

Will turns the middle mouse click into a left mouse click. 

For much more on input device configuration please see:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Input 

Have fun
Shahar

  Having upgraded from xubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 my Logitech mouse button 4
  now does scroll back.  Since I'd spent a lot of effort getting mouse
  button 4 to do a "double click button 1" I'm a bit annoyed at this.

  Can anyone tell me where this button scoll action is being configured
  so I can un-configure it and get my double click back?
