Hi Debian!
I use the same X Debian package + XF86Config-4 in the 2 kernel versions and the same Sarge release.
But...
in 2.6.7 my 2 mousewheel A4Tech optical mouse has only the upper wheel active and in 2.4.26 both.
So since the only difference is the kernel version, that has to be the difference.

This optical mouse has two wheels. Both work.
X configuration might need change, I had to change mine:
2.4.x Option "Protocol" "MouseManPlusPS/2" 2.6.x Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
however my side button (button 6) does not work. The other options is to use evdev driver (I haven't tried it yet):
Option "Protocol" "evdev"
Option "Dev Name" <dev name>not sure what exactly would work for you, the way mouse works is a lot different in 2.6.x (instead of raw device kernel recognizes mouse itself, however the device reacts differently depending on which protocol you use to communicate with it).
search debian-devel for 'logitech mouse [was: Lost Trust]', messages from 2004/5/31 - 2004/6/8 (read the whole thread, some messages are not relevant to your problem but some of them are quite informative, like the one that mentions evdev).
there are also quite a few discussions on kernel mailing list (mostly from around the time 2.6 was released)
