Try:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
If you have a wheel mouse, you don't need the Emulate3Buttons -- push
the wheel for button 3.
Also, try the auto protocol -- it usually works out.
Good luck!
