I am using i3 window manager and not sure how to configure my Trackman. I found this link but it's confusing: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Logitech_Marble_Mouse

Are there clear instructions somewhere on how to setup my mouse? More specifically I am interested in turning the small left button to act as a vertical scroller istead of the default (left navigation in the browser).

On Ubuntu 16.04 I used to add this to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-marblemouse.conf

  Section "InputClass"
      Identifier      "Marble Mouse"
      MatchProduct    "Logitech USB Trackball"
      MatchIsPointer  "on"
      MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
      Driver          "evdev"
      Option          "SendCoreEvents" "true"

      #  Physical buttons come from the mouse as:
      #     Big:   1 3
      #     Small: 8 9
      #
      # This makes left small button (8) into the middle click and scroll

      Option "Buttons"            "8"
      Option "ButtonMapping"      "1 8 3 4 5 6 7 2 9"
      Option "EmulateWheel"       "true"
      Option "EmulateWheelButton" "8"
      Option "YAxisMapping"       "4 5"
      Option "XAxisMapping"       "6 7"

  EndSection

but the link above is talking about different file and different content.

The following link is more Ubuntu specific for the Logitech Trackman Marble. Hope this helps.
