Well, the usb printer was not working either.  I ended up hard coding
'/sbin/modprobe uhci_hcd' in rc.sysinit to make that work and now the
mouse wheel works.  I've never really understood how all the usb stuff
fits together, but I'm wondering how my mouse was working at all without
the usb host device module loaded.  

BTW, just changing the module alias in /etc/modules.conf to point to
uhci_hcd doesn't work.
