My Logitec wheelmouse doesn't scroll when using the wheel.
I've added the line:
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
to /etc/X11/XF86Config but it still doesn't work. Otherwise the mouse is working just fine. |

Try configuring you section like below. This allowed me to use my generic scroll mouse with no problems. I think the major issue is making sure the protocol supports scrolling as well.
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
EndSection

When I first installed gentoo, I had exactly the same problem. I even went out and bought a new mouse Then I modified the file and, presto I could use both mice to scroll.. YAY!

Yes I think the key for me was setting Protocol to IMPS/2. I had it at just PS/2 and it didn't work. |

That did the trick. It was just changing PS/2 to IMPS/2 that did it.
Much obliged. |
