I have no problems running X with a 2 button + wheel (which acts as a third button, plus 4 + 5 for the up and down movement of the wheel) Microsoft Intellimouse. I never got gpm to work happily with it, so I stopped using gpm (I almost never do console stuff, so I didn't really care), but X works great.
(Xfree86 3.3.2.3)
/etc/X11/XF86Config: [snip] Section "Pointer" Protocol "imps/2" Device "/dev/mouse" ZAxisMapping 4 5 [snip]
X might get unhappy if you have a protocol of ps/2 instead of imps/2 and you have a wheel mouse. I don't know, though...
