This is quite weird. I was going to say that it will work, but with
the M705 I've got at home,this thumb button doesn't work at all
(anything is emitted from the usb, even with this driver).
But I'm pretty sure I made it work with the one I got at work.

I'll give a try on Monday unless people at Logitech gave us the solution.

Cheers,
Benjamin
