Filling against xorg in the case somebody there has a better hint of what can be causing this problem. Thanks!
** Package changed: ubuntu => xorg (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996176 Title: scroll wheel doesn't work with VmarkerUSB Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Our scroll function of our interactive whiteboard doesn't work, http://www.vmarker.org . When we use the scroll wheel, we have seen that the correct HID reports are transmitted to the PC. You can see this in the next example: #sudo cat /dev/hidraw2 | xxd -c6 0000018: 0001 8402 7800 ....x. 000001e: 0001 8402 7800 ....x. 0000024: 00ff 8402 7800 ....x. 000002a: 00ff 8402 7800 ....x. The build up of our HID reports is: -First byte: bit 0 and bit 1 are left and right mouse button -Second byte: is the scroll in relative axis (127 to -128) -byte 3 and 4: is the X-axis in absolute coordinate (0 to 1023) -byte 5 and 6: is the Y-axis in absolute coordinate (0 to 1023) As you can see in the output of the command the PC receives the correct scroll values 1 (0x01) and -1(0xFF). When I run the same command with a normal usb mouse I get similar output except the absolute coordinates. Next thing I checked was if xorg correctly find and configured my device.

I can make out of this info that xorg correctly found the axis and configured them. With #sudo cat /dev/input/event6 | xxd -c48 I checked if xorg is reporting the correct data. 0000000: c517 a84f 0000 0000 9bab 0d00 0000 0000 0200 0800 ffff ffff c517 a84f 0000 0000 a0ab 0d00 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ...O.......................O.................... 0000030: c617 a84f 0000 0000 c9bc 0000 0000 0000 0200 0800 0100 0000 c617 a84f 0000 0000 cebc 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ...O.......................O.................... 0000060: c617 a84f 0000 0000 606c 0100 0000 0000 0200 0800 0100 0000 c617 a84f 0000 0000 626c 0100 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ...O....`l.................O....bl.............. 0000090: c617 a84f 0000 0000 67c1 0300 0000 0000 0200 0800 0100 0000 c617 a84f 0000 0000 6cc1 0300 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ...O....g..................O....l............... 00000c0: c717 a84f 0000 0000 7749 0000 0000 0000 0200 0800 ffff ffff c717 a84f 0000 0000 7c49 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ...O....wI.................O....|I.............. 00000f0: c717 a84f 0000 0000 99a1 0000 0000 0000 0200 0800 ffff ffff c717 a84f 0000 0000 f3a1 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ...O.......................O....................
