In the mouse section in xorg.conf or XF86Config-4 set the ZAxisMapping as in:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "PS/2 Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" # "4 5"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "Emulate3Timeout" "70"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
EndSection

I use side buttons so I have "6 7". Without sidebuttons use "4 5"
