RAT5 still not working after xorg fix

[ashinms]

I have the RAT5 and am running linux mint currently. I tried the old change xorg.conf trick, and it worked on normal ubuntu, but after moving to mint, the same trick doesn't work anymore. This is what is currently written in xorg.conf:

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Mouse Remap"
MatchProduct "Saitek Cyborg R.A.T.5 Mouse"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 0 0 8 9 10 11 12 0 0 0 0 0"
EndSection

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've got this working like a charm on Ubuntu 12.04, I'll dig out my config tomorrow. I only saw instructions for RAT 7s before getting it to work though and IIRC it's a slightly difference patch for the RAT 5.

I did use the slightly different version for my mouse, but it still seems to not be working. Could I possibly be using the wrong filetype?
