OK, got it.

I have it now running in a terminal with the -v option, and I can see
the keycodes coming in when I press the pad buttons or move the wheel,
but the results aren't quite what I expect.

When I press the left button, the Gnome Applications menu is displayed
in the upper left-hand corner of the screen.

Ditto the right button.

When I move the wheel, the tooltip for that menu is displayed.

You write on your blog that the default entry

  configures the scroll wheel to send mouse button 4 on an up move and
  mouse button 5 on   a down move (994 and 995 are virtual key codes
  to send buttons of the core pointer and button 4 and 5 are the signals
  of my mouse for the scroll wheel: have a look at the ZAxisMapping option
  of your core pointer in the X configuration).

If I understand this correctly, the pad wheel should in fact be acting
like the mouse wheel, which would be very useful, but this doesn't
seem to be working in my case.  The relevant  xorg.conf entry you
mention above looks like this:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection

Any idea what might be going wrong?

FWIW: I am running Fedora Core 5. Thanks for your assistance.
