I am reasonably sure the imwheel program is for XFree 3.3 and 4.x has
scroll built into it. Since you didn't mention which version you are
running I am going to assume 4. 

This should be all you need if you are running 4.x in XF86Config-4

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier "Mouse1"
    Driver "mouse"
    Option "Protocol" "imPS/2"
    Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
