OK- I found out the issue. In linux, the mouse buttons are not correctly.
A little help from here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/492744/how-do-i-automatically-remap-buttons-on-my-mouse-at-startup

Ended up with doing this:
xinput --set-button-map 4 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 6 7
the first #4 is the device id i found. the 6 & 7 were the offending mapping, so replacing 6 7 with 8 9 7 fixed it...
