When you right-click on your Linux desktop you get a context menu displayed. It looks like this:

How to edit it highly depends on your desktop environment.

See /usr/share/kde4/services/plasma-containmentactions-contextmenu.desktop

tweedleburg:~/.kde4/share/config # diff plasma-desktop-appletsrc~ plasma-desktop-appletsrc
3d2
< wheel:Vertical;NoModifier=switchdesktop
tweedleburg:~/.kde4/share/config # cd /usr/share/kde4/services
tweedleburg:/usr/share/kde4/services # grep -ir "switchdesktop" *
