According to Ken Chavanu, the diNovo Media Desktop Laser doesn't work as well as the "normal" one does out-of-the-box under Linux.

Michael Weidel reports that his diNovo Laser works out of the box with bluez-utils 3.7-1 in Debian Etch and uses the following xmodmap-settings for left and right button, the scroll wheel, the middle mouse button (by pushing the wheel) and the "Mozilla back button":
