Okay, this has been a problem I have tried to deal with many a time. The
situation is very different for PS/2 mice but USB is another story. I have
yet to be able to get my scroll wheel working in any version of Slack 9.1
to current if I am using a USB mouse. I have added :

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

But still nothing. This is the current settings for my mouse in xorg.conf:

Identifier and driver

Identifier "Mouse1"

Driver "mouse"

Option "Protocol" "PS/2"

Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

Option "Emulate3Buttons"

Can someone please tell me what I am missing?

Thanks in advance.

Try IMPS/2 instead

Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
in my xorg.conf.
