How can I get a working mouse wheel WITHOUT using guest additions?

All I find are discussions about guest additions.

host: Linux
guest: Ubuntu 12.04, Debian Wheezy

I had it working once, but forgot how. Some package must be missing.

That is offtopic. I prefer to stick with my original question. If you are eager to find out, please open a new thread and invite me.

not so off topic. it works with them, so my question would be appropriate. its a simple question but if you don't want to answer thats up to you.
