I'm trying to set up Ubuntu as my daily driver on my 27 inch iMac. Would the solution for the magic trackpad work with the magic mouse as well? This is a work computer, so I don't want to spend too much time tumbling down rabbit holes.

The Magic Mouse works out of the box in 12.04, with right-click, middle-click, left-click, vertical scroll and horizontal scroll. As far as I can tell, more advanced functions (two-finger swipe, three-finger swipe, pinch, and zoom) don't work yet.

I am using one right now. I just connected it via USB bluetooth dongley thingy. (technical term) The only issue right now is that I cannot invert scrolling and scrolling is not that smooth. I am still trying to figure that out. It does work though.
