Perhaps these intellimice are not all the same?  Mine is an elderly one.  
Bootup always record problems saying that it will be treated as a generic 
one, but the scroll and the middle-button behaviour work, so I'm tempted to 
leave it alone.  FYI my /etc/sysconfig/mouse says

MOUSETYPE=imps2
XMOUSETYPE=IMPS/2
FULLNAME="PS/2|Generic PS2 Wheel Mouse"
XEMU3=no
WHEEL=yes
device=psaux
