I hope this thread is on-topic or at least related?

I am looking at F13 and /etc/sysconfig/mouse and
/etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist but /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
does exist, but only one file: 00-system-setup-keyboard.conf
exist, and there is nothing related to the mouse, AFAIK?

What I am experiencing is, at least with Mozilla's Firefox
& Thunderbird, the mouse thumbwheel is behaving erratically
when scrolling past the "top" of the page or scrolling past
the "bottom" of the page (in FF & TB) and behaves as if the
next/previous buttons were pressed.

Is this related to changeover from the old xinput system
to the evdev system, as Tom Horsley mentioned in his
reply to this post?
