You can get the wheel to work (in most X apps, some gnome apps have
problems with it) by using htis in your XF86Config:

Section "Pointer"
  Protocol              "IMPS/2"
  Device                "/dev/mouse"
  SampleRate            60
  BaudRate              1200
  ZaxisMapping 4 5
  Buttons 3
EndSection

I've actually become rather used to being able to jump up and down web
pages and code quickly using the mouse wheel.

I do not reccomend these mice for Quake however. ;)
