Reversed scrolling / switch up and down

Greetings!

How can I revert the scroll direction? Apple has done that with the new Mac OS X Lion so that you don't manipulate the view but the content itself (like on a touchscreen device). I wanted to give it a try but was unsuccessful so far. In KDE there is a checkbox for it in the mouse settings, but I am using Openbox (ArchBang). I foud an option one can use in xorg.conf (Option "ZAxisMapping" "5 4") which is supposed to do the trick, but when I add this to my files in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ there is no effect.

Any idea? Thanks!

Thanks Spider! xmodmap works (xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 5 4 6" in my case).
