Here is my mouse section from Xfree which I use with gpm

#Touchpad using gpm -Rimps2 -t synps2 -m /dev/mouse
Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier  "Mouse0"
	Driver      "mouse"
	Option	    "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
	Option	    "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
	Option	    "Buttons" "5"
	Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
	Option	    "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
EndSection


This provides the Z axis mapping for the vertical scrolling.

Also here is my gpm-syn.conf file:
