Add the following line to the "Input Device" section defining your mouse in
/etc/X11/XF86Config.

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

See the FAQ at
<http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/x.html#X-AND-WHEEL>.

Most of the info in FAQ only applies to "classic" X/Motif apps. GTK/QT apps
should work fine with only ZAxisMapping added.

Cheers.
