Slightly off topic, but wanted to ask. Is there any first source/seconds or third source application that can be used to speed up the movement of the wheel mouse? It's painfully slow compared to my "normal" usage on a windows box. Or, are there any quick hacks that can be made to speed up the wheel in the Xconfig?

If I recall correctly, the wheel is just mapped to buttons 4 and 5.
What WM are you using ? Kde ? Gnome ?

I'm using Gnome. Yes, the Zaxis 4 5 is for the wheel or button 4&5, but I thought there might be some other tweak less known or published that would serve to adjust the speed of the scroll wheel. I can live with it, but sure would be nice to have a tad more speed, especially when looking at 100+ pages of PDF's!

I would guess it is related to Gnome's configuration, not X. That is based on my previous experiences on that topic with XFree86, about 3 years ago, so YMMV.
Sorry, that is the best I can do.
