AFAK there is usually no need to install the "xf86-input-mouse" package. my mouse is working just fine. copying and pasting using mouse is handled with X and it doesn't have anything to do with the driver. Just check your X settings or your DE and see if something is wrong.
There are different ways to set up a mouse. It hasn't to be done by any file inside /etc/X11. On Debian I edited another file, can't remember it's location. Anyway, wheel emulation could be an issue. I guess the wheel emulation is a X setting somewhere in /etc, e.g. xorg.conf and that ominous file I can't remember, but perhaps the option to use the third button for C&P is a task of the DE. I want to get rid of the C&P option :D. Shortcuts and mouse options at the moment are less important for me, so I didn't search for it, I still try to get an audio out signal :(. Anyway, there are new issues for the mouse on current Linux. When I was using Debian I had to get rid of my PS/2 mouse, because the wheel didn't work. I bought a USB mouse. The USB mouse was ok, but after some upgrades no mouse worked anymore. For Arch my USB mouse is ok again. - Ralf
