Edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config (or /etc/X11/XF86Config-4) file and post the InputDevice section for your.

It should look something like the following (for a scroll mouse):

Code:

Section "InputDevice" 

# Identifier and driver 

  Identifier "Mouse1" 
  Driver "mouse" 
  Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" 

# The available mouse protocols types that you can set below are&#58; 
# Auto BusMouse GlidePoint GlidePointPS/2 IntelliMouse IMPS/2 
# Logitech Microsoft MMHitTab MMSeries Mouseman MouseManPlusPS/2 
# MouseSystems NetMousePS/2 NetScrollPS/2 OSMouse PS/2 SysMouse 
# ThinkingMouse ThinkingMousePS/2 Xqueue 
  Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" 

# Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice 
# Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds &#40;default is 50ms&#41; 

# Option "Emulate3Buttons" 
# Option "Emulate3Timeout" "50" 

# ZAxisMapping is an option for scroll button
  Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
