As others mentioned I think these originally went into xorg.conf.
However, with F11 as far as I remember all I did was put an xmodmap
command into my .bash_profile file:

   if [ -n "`echo $DISPLAY | egrep '^(localhost)?:0'`" ]; then
        xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 17 3 4 5 8 9 6 7 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 2
18 19 20"  
   fi

This was for (I think) a Logitech MX performance at work, and something
like an M500 at home. The tilting wheel works, but you may want to remap
the button numbers to suit your own needs.
