I have an Apple Magic Mouse installed and working with Ubuntu 10.10 x86 on a Dell laptop.
The problem is that vertical scrolling is very slow in Gnome. A flick of the finger only scrolls a little bit. I want the fast hyperscroll action I get with this mouse on my Mac, or with the Revolution MX mouse I'm replacing…
Any fixes?

This worked for me (on Ubuntu 11.04):

Summary:
Once you've adjusted the scroll speed and acceleration to your liking:
This improves the scroll speed and acceleration, but it does not scroll quite like it does on Mac. Specifically, it does not have the smooth inertia/momentum effect that causes the scrolling to "coast" to a stop when you flick your finger across the surface. Instead it jerks to a stop immediately when you lift your finger off the mouse.
