Which version of GNUstep are we talking about? There used to be a 
problem with contextual menus a while ago (earlier this year, IIRC) 
but has been addressed and fixed (AFAICT) in newer versions.

That is just a warning, that your X11 server reports more than 5 
buttons (eg. a Logitech mouse with 8 buttons) and that GNUstep is 
going to use only the first 5. You might want to check your X11 config 
file (eg /etc/X11/xorg.conf) and/or X11's startup log (eg 
/var/log/Xorg.0.log) and check whether ZAxisMapping is configured.
