look at your /etc/X11/XF86config-4 and make it like below. Note the important 
bit is the "ZAxisMapping" line.  Your device entry will stay the same, mine 
is "gpmdata" because I use gpm and X.

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Configured Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/gpmdata"
        Option          "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
        Option          "Emulate3Buttons"       "true"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
EndSection
