This problem has frustrated me ever since I upgraded to Intrepid. I have the same model of Mighty Mouse; here is the applicable line from `cat /proc/bus/input/devices`:

I: Bus=0005 Vendor=05ac Product=030c Version=0200

I don't think I'm up to compiling a new kernel. I have tried many variations in my "/etc/hal/fdi/policy/mightymouse.fdi" file, but none seem to change the way my mouse operates (vertical wheel scrolling is fine; horizontal wheel scrolling is reverse).

Is there a work-around via an fdi file, or is the kernel patch the only work-around at this time?
