[Cialug] Wheel mouse ain't wheelin' no more

[David Champion]

This is a non-tweaked input section from a Mandrake 10.1 system, which 
uses x.org instead of xfree86. The "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" is for the 
wheel, I believe.

-dc

Section "InputDevice"
     Identifier "Mouse1"
     Driver "mouse"
     Option "Protocol" "auto"
     Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
     Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

-dc
