Logitech Mouse swipe issues with Mountain Lion.

I have noticed to my annoyance since installing Mountain Lion earlier this evening, that my Logitech cordless mouse refuses to scroll to the right, upon opening Launchpad.

Specifically, the scroll-wheel tilt-function now refuses to swipe between pages within the Launchpad, as it did without a problem with OS X Lion. Moreover, I have noticed that Mountain Lion no longer allows the arrow keys to perform the same function, again as it did with no problem under OS X Lion. Even after downloading Logitech's latest firmware for the mouse, this particular problem persists.

This "feature" as Apple will no doubt claim it is, has already annoyed me, for I really don't want to be forced onto Apple's proprietary Magic Mouse or Magic Pad if I can at all avoid it, and I actually resent the apparent attempts by Apple to force iDevice owners to change their keyboard and mouse habits.

At the very least, I would prefer to use the keyboard's arrow keys to swipe between pages, instead of the Magic Mouse that for me does very little for hand posture. Does anybody know of a tweak within System Preferences to reactivate this 'Lion-specific' feature? Whatever useful tips there may be offered are appreciated in advance.
