Is there a way I can enable the mouse scroll wheel in XWindows?

Edit your /etc/XF86Config file.

Add ZAxisMapping 4 5 under the section "Pointer" (after section Keybord) under "protocol"

Check it out if you still don't get it:
------------------------------------

Section "Keyboard"
Protocol "Standard"
AutoRepeat 500 30
LeftAlt Meta
RightAlt Meta
ScrollLock Compose
RightCtl Control
XkbKeycodes "xfree86"
XkbTypes "default"
XkbCompat "default"
XkbSymbols "us(pc101)"
XkbGeometry "pc"
XkbRules "xfree86"
XkbModel "pc104"
XkbLayout "us"
EndSection

Section "Pointer"
Protocol "IntelliMouse" ZAxisMapping 4 5 --> Here is where you add it
Device "/dev/ttyS0"
BaudRate 1200
Emulate3Timeout 50
Resolution 200

---------------------------------

Btw, you may need to put "" around the 4 5. As in ZAxisMapping "4 5".
