I've got a wireless keyboard that has just about the same options yours does.  I'm using it with Debian and Libranet, but I haven't tried to get all the bells and whistles going on it.  It works well enough for me, but I think you might be looking at a litle script writing if you want to enable all the functions on yours.

ive played with it, and im pretty sure it would be much more then a simple script. and is there any X-window mouse driver that supports a five button mouse and the scroll wheel

i do have to say though, that the $15 game pad that i bought is pretty nice. im going to be using it with emulaters and such.

That's what I'm using; I just use the conventional PS2 mouse settings; I haven't tried to configure the scroll wheels, I'm given to understand that it can be done; I DO know there's a website for configuring wheel mice; do a Google search for Wheel Mice for Linux and see what you find- remember, Google is your friend!
