MX1000 not compatible with firefox?

[Nextman916]

Ive been reading reviews on this mouse and it seems to be a very solid mouse. I also like the grooves of it more than any other mouse ive ever held(tried at comp usa). But alot of websites have been saying that its not compatible with firefox or at least some buttons on the mice? Is this true or has it been fixed since its release? If so can you specify which buttons and why?

You're not compatible with firefox.

I think they might mean side scroll, but if so that may just be the drivers/windows not working with third-party applications (firefox).

They're talking about the thumb buttons for going forward/back in webpages. Yes, it is true, but there's an easy workaround. You just go into the menu and switch the buttons from forward/back to generic buttons (there's a drop-down menu of possible functions). After you do this, it works just fine, I love mine.

Only if you ask Bill Gates

Firefox has one of the biggest developers community out there... if something is incompatible in some way with it, it get fixed in a couple of weeks... or at least this is my experience with it...

It works. Needs some tweaks though.

it works just fine with mine. i didnt have to change anything. im using the latest drivers from logitech also.

does anyone have the problem of not being able to use your foward/back buttons in games like cs:s?

I have noticed it being totally incompatible (the thumb buttons, at least) with Opera.

For game like CS:S, you can download "Logigamer" (Google it); it lets you assign the buttons to different functions.

It does work for tab to tab scrolling.

I do believe it is compatable
