What does C-h k [mouse-wheel] say? Some mouse drivers, especially for
laptop touchpads on MS-Windows, try to simulate a drag of the scroll
bar instead of sending the default mouse-wheel event. This is
annoying, because such drivers make the assumption that a frame only
has one vertical scroll-bar, and Emacs can do nothing about it.
