Val, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc8

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  045e:00f9 [Gateway DX4860] Horizontal scrolling is broken with
  9-button Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 5000

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  horizontal scrolling is broken with the 9-button Microsoft Wireless
  Laser Mouse 5000.

  WORKAROUND: sudo apt-get install build-essential xserver-xorg-dev xutils-dev libudev-dev
  wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/xserver-xorg-input-evdev_2.7.0.orig.tar.gz
  wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/926917/+attachment/3373367/+files/horizontal_scrolling.patch
  tar -zxvf xserver-xorg-input-evdev_2.7.0.orig.tar.gz
  cd xf86-input-evdev-2.7.0
  patch -p1 < ../horizontal_scrolling.patch
  ./configure --prefix=/usr
  make

  To invert and fix the scrolling change the -1 on line 1601 of src/evdec.c to 1 so it should read:
  SetScrollValuator(device, axnum, SCROLL_TYPE_HORIZONTAL, 1.0, SCROLL_FLAG_NONE);
