You can edit the X configuration (/etc/X11/XF86config-4) and specify a different mouse type there. For a wheel mouse, specify the IMPS/2 protocol and use /dev/psaux as the location where it's connected. If you're not comfortable manually editing the file, you can rerun the X configuration tool and it should pick the new mouse out for you straight away.
