Ubuntu Jaunty: Mousewheel UP scrolls down to the bottom

 

Hi!

 

 

Client Ubuntu Jaunty: Mousewheel UP scrolls down to the bottom

 

 

When scrolling down with the mouse wheel, everything works fine, but if I scroll the mouse wheel up, the listbox or whatever focused scrolls down to the bottom.

 

 

Host: Ubuntu 9.04

 

 

Client Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)

 

 

this happens with both evdev and vmmouse driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

 

 

Any ideas?

 

 

TIA

 

 

Andre

Hi Andre,

 

I had the same problem under XP host and Ubuntu 9.04 Guest.

After installing:

 

 

 

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse

 

 

 

everything works nicely (assuming you have installed VMWare Tools)

 

Regards,

Alex.
