I can't, fot the life of me, remember how to reconfigure my mouse. I chose the wrong one while reformatting and my scroll button doesn't work, nothing under peripherals/control center.

edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file.

You have to edit the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file

This is my mouse configuration (one of those) I'm using Logitech ps/2 wheelmouse (scrolling works)

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "MouseManPlusPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection

And

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Anaconda Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

for GUI's this depends on your distro which you don't state, but it is configured in the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. Look in there for settings :)
