Hi Brice, Horizontal wheel generally works fine since the stable release of etch. I say generally, because at X startup everything works fine, but sometimes after a while the horizontal wheel is gone, and it starts to act as the vertical wheel. When this occurs, xev shows that horizontal and vertical wheels send the same key events (button 4 and 5), though they normally send different key events (button 4,5,6 and 7). (xev showed the same at the time of the bugreport, so remapping never helped) Unfortunately I can't tell what triggers the bug, and can't reproduce it. I have to restart X and it works fine again. The bug occurs about once a month, and I usually restart my X only at these occasions.
I'm using stable now with the latest updates, and it works as described above. Don't know about unstable, haven't checked.
