It sounds like your options are limited.

(1) You can buy a cheap scroll mouse that will work with DSL. Logitech makes them for under 10 bucks.

(2) You can install the "gpm" mouse server driver which will hopefully work with your brand of scroll mouse.  Then configure it to work in "repeater-mode" to repeat as an Intellimouse scroll mouse (IMPS2 protocol).

(3) You could install the full blown XFree86 Xwindows system and hopefully it contains a mouse driver for your mouse.  However, XFree86 uses more memory and disk space.

Good Luck.
