<context name="Root">
      <mousebind button="Up" action="Click">
        <action name="DesktopPrevious"/>
        <wrap>yes</wrap>
      </mousebind>
      <mousebind button="Down" action="Click">
        <action name="DesktopNext"/>
        <wrap>yes</wrap>
      </mousebind>
</context>

Does nothing. I suppose the Rox pinboard has overlayed the root window anyway.
