This post belongs on -questions, if anywhere.  The answer is also covered
in the FAQ.
 (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/x.html#X-AND-WHEEL)

Basically, you need to add "-z 4" to "moused_flags" in rc.conf.  And your
mouse section in XF86Config should look something like this:
    Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "Mouse1"
       Driver          "mouse"
       Option          "Protocol" "auto"
       Option          "Device" "/dev/sysmouse"
       Option          "Buttons" "5"
    EndSection

If the software you want to use the scroll wheel in isn't new enough to
recognize it on its own, you may wish to install the imwheel port/package.
