Mouse configuration



I've looked and I've looked and I can't find an answer to this one.
 
I had a Woody upgraded to Sarge Debian system running for some time.  Had my Logitech mouse as a PS/2 and did not have the wheel mouse functionality.
 
Due to a bad decision on my part I got my system into a position where I could not get some package modules to load up and get configured (kept getting an error relating to ldconfig).  Anyway I backed up my data that I wanted to keep and went for a clean install (I know M$ method but it was faster).
 
Well when I reloaded I made a very POOR decision and chose a wheel mouse type for my mouse instead of the PS/2.  I figured a mouse is a mouse.  Anyway when the system came up with the GUI my mouse goes haywire.  Mouse clicks close windows. Moving the mouse selects windows, closes windows.  Its crazy.
 
Anyway I worked through the issues to upgrade my kernel from 2.2.20 to 2.4.27.  In the configuration I selected PS2 mouse support. The upgrade went well but no change in the mouse actions?
 
I've goggled till my fingers hurt.  Is there a way to change the mouse configuration?
