Obviously yes, this is the way to disable mouse wheel.

I never said that. I said that standard option is :

Option "ZAxisMapping 4 5"

compared to

Option "ZAxisMapping 6 7"

If a user has a two buttons mouse and decided to turn off middle mouse 
emulation:

	Option      "Emulate3Buttons" "off"

Then suddenly the middle mouse emulation would not work in Mozilla, 
OpenOffice, Konqueror, aterm and evolution...

my 2 cents,
Mathieu
