TL;DR: Forwards and backwards buttons on mouse broke. Me sad!

grrr, bought a corsair dark core mouse (on sale) to use with my laptop (in school) because I got really sick my other mouse being wired. It has worked really well up until like a month ago where the fucking forwards and backwards buttons magically stopped working and will instead just type the numbers 1 and 2. This also happens only in Linux because iQueue, their driver software, is windows only.

It works fine otherwise, but goooood is it hard to live without the forwards and backwards buttons :<
