Unlike Windows, where I'd have to download a 50 Meg file from logitech to make 
the tilt wheel work, everything's there in Xorg, and mplayer automatically 
uses the left and right click to skip forward and backward. Horizontal 
scrolling in browser windows works as well - out of the box.

Isn't linux great :-)

It just expects the user to be a little more computer-friendly.
