Flux,

Once again....
# man [whatever you're trying to do]
In this case:
# man moused

For X, add these two lines to the mouse section of XF86Config:
The first line defines the number of buttons, you define 5.  Two
for each of the main buttons, one for clicking the mouse wheel,
and two for rolling the mouse.
The second line adds scroll support to X.
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

Being a former newbie (5 years ago), I learned one thing that I
feel that I should pass along to you.  Before posting to this list,
do some basic homework (i.e., man command, www.google.com).  Almost
anything you can think of doing with your BSD box, has been done
many times before, and is available via online documentation (man)
or can be found on the 'net (www.google.com, www.freebsddiary.org).

Thought I'd share.
