Just for posterity's sake, would you mind posting how you configured it, for
anyone searching for help on the same thing?

I don't have an MX620, but I do love Logitech trackballs, and am interested in
configuration settings for this stuff. I was looking at the Kensington one
with a turn-wheel, but settled on my old faithful Trackman Marble for recent
replacement. I really just want something like that with a wheel, but the
ones I saw didn't do it for me. In any case, at some point i'm going to have
to deal with a more complex device, so I'd like to see what kind of thing
you needed to configure (never heard of btnx.)

Thanks,
