Andy,
The main problem here is that the mouse protocol "ImPS/2" is always selected by default in Ubuntu/Debian while your mouse and other mice need the "ExplorerPS/2" protocol to make the extra buttons work.
The ButtonMapping needed to make this work in FireFox is not a bug. But the wrong mouse protocol is a bug, that is why I will leave this bug report open.
