Several of these exist but none say they work with Linux (Slackware and Xubunu). Any of you used such a device with Linux?

I've had no problems with rollerball mice or laser mice under Linux (Slackware, and Kubuntu).
However, I have no experience with trackball mice, which I suspect is what you call a "roller ball mouse". My guess is that, because a trackball is essentially an inverted roller ball mouse, Linux should have no problem recognizing it.

I use a Logitech Track Ball Marble +, and I never had a problem with it. Works out of the box, no configuration needed.
