[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
1. I would advice people to switch to KDE from Gnome. It has proper mouse settings and much more. 2. I don't know if it helps for somebody, but I use mouse scroll emulation when the right mouse button is clicked down then moving the mouse up and down scrolls. -> I can more dinamically/quickly/accurately use on my laptop. It is a system wide solution, set up once, restart the computer and enjoy in every app. It does not matter if it is Gnome or KDE.

[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
There should be also a separate setting for laptops' touchpad edge scrolling to avoid constant tinkering with the setting, because obviously touchpad accelerates differently. At least I find that the default current slow scrolling is ok for my touchpad, but I hate it for my mouse wheels. For sure I'd rather live with that tinkering than current no-setting-at-all situation. But the way the mouse settings were recently (13.04) dumbed down even more (additional touchpad settings removed and sensitivity and speed slider becoming one single slider - seriously?), I think it is more likely to see whole mouse settings being removed altogether by Gnome team than to see this ever being addressed with an additional setting... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124440 Title: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/124440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
#53: *My surprised face* :) Lack of this setting now plagues especially Chrome/Chromium, since earlier this year a command-line switch to set a custom scrolling speed was removed from Chrome (it was experimental in the first place), so now there is no simple workaround for Chrome (I guess Firefox still has one in the about:config page). I find the default scrolling speed so uselessly slow on websites that I just really rather use PgUp/Down. Seeing how the mouse & touchpad settings only just got (13.04, altough of course Gnome is responsible for this) options *removed* in the name of "streamlining" or whatever, somehow it just doesn't feel likely that there would ever be a GUI-setting for this even if it was already possible.

Last I checked, mouse scrolling came from discrete up/down button events (mouse buttons 4 and 5).

[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
@G9283 (b8732) Yes, that's how bug reports work, when no one is interested in them, they are left to rot, in a non-public company bugs are fixed based on how heavily they impact to users and what those users are trying to do with it, if they don't impact the program heavily enough, they don't get fixed, which is basically the same thing here, except we have the freedom to contribute a fix to a bug that affects us. @seb128 "could people stop arguing about bug settings, adding a new option is defined as "wishlist" it doesn't mean it will not be worked on or that it's a low priority" Actually that is the definition of wishlist: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wish%20list "a list of desired but often realistically unobtainable items" So what is the point of a bug being on a wishlist? It's saying 'this bug is desired to be fixed, but unlikely to be', it is low priority and bugs that take 6 years to even be looked at generally are low priority, so I'm not arguing, I'm stating a fact. @Paul Somebody "in this OS mistakes and shortcomings are always rectified quickly" This isn't something that should be advocated, issues can be rectified quickly but I wouldn't say 'always', in fact if we go back to before Ubuntu was based on Unity and was based on Gnome, issues were almost never rectified quickly. Anyway lets all hold hands and pray to zeus the 100 paper cuts team can fix this issue.

Also the wishlist status means that it's a new feature that needs to be implemented rather than a fix for an existing one.

Well currently the bug has 4 statuses: Fix Released Invalid Invalid Triaged Both Fix Released and Triaged have importance set to "wishlist", along with this not being an ubuntu issue, but a gnome issue, the chances of this getting fixed or implemented by Canonical are close to zero, you would be better off attempting to throw money at a developer, (most likely a gnome developer) to implement this.

Yorick, I completely agree with you. I wonder which is the correct way to try to elevate this issue and let devs know it's important. Should I refer people affected to this bug and have them subscribe? Or should we open an idea at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com and vote there?

[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
This still hasn't been fixed? This is embarrassing. I bought a new mouse, and not only can I not use the scroll wheel effectively in Ubuntu (I need to spin it four or five times to move a paragraph), the mouse cursor traverses my 2560-pixel wide desktop in under 2cm of tabletop movement on the minimum available speed setting. I get it, first world problems - but this is elementary for a desktop UI system. The fact that this hasn't been implemented in a *decade of Ubuntu development* is shamefully irresponsible. I'm annoyed but capable of going and hacking my RCs in order to get xinput to fix this, but most Ubuntu users *cannot* be expected or even *able* to put up with this to get their *mouse to work properly*. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124440 Title: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/124440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
I totally agree. Unfortunately it's a problem we have inherited from Gnome 3.x. So many configuration options are hidden. If you can't find what you need in gnome-control-center then open a terminal and run "synclient" which will show you many settings for touchpads at least. Also, for any input device type you can run: xinput list-props N where N is a number shown by running "xinput" by itself. You can also use xinput to customize settings. If you want to make such a command set on log in, you can add it as a startup program in "gnome-session-properties". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124440 Title: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/124440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 124440] Re: Ubuntu needs a way to set mouse scrolling speed
Some people wonder why I sometimes say Ubuntu is half-finished. This and the sorry state of gpointing-device-settings is the best proof. If there's no way to properly set/use mice and touchpads on many desktops/laptops, there's no way Ubuntu can gain more users. No amount of Unity improvements and shiny lenses and scopes will overcome a simple showstopper like this.
