looks like for some reason your axes are mapped to the vert/horiz scroll
wheel.

Can you please open a bug on bugs.freedesktop.org and attach your Xorg.0.log
and your xorg.conf?
If you're using evdev, it might just be that the axes are parsed in a wrong
manner. Trying evdev 2.0 from git might be a good idea here.
