Mouse 3 scroll [SOLVED]

In windows, while i was using firefox, i could click the mouse 3 (scroll wheel) to enable scrolling by moving the mouse. I would like to enable that in linux, but i dont know how. Have any of you guys gotten that to work?

I hate that thing, too. You can enable/disable that option through about:config. There should be an entry called "general.autoScroll" there and you can set it to "true" to enable it.

[SOLVED] xorg/arch mouse scroll

Hi, I am stuck with this and could not find an answer in the Forum (sorry if I missed...)
I installed both archbang and archlinux (arch+xorg+openbox, nothing else) in virtualbox. In archbang the mouse wheel works perfectly, in arhclinux it does not work at all. The config files are the same in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/.
Can some tell me what I need to do in archlinux to enable mouse scroll? Thanks in advance!

Unbelieveable... yes that was the problem! I simply skip that becasue everything "seemed" working fine. Thanks again!
After installing virtualbox I was hoping that would solve my other problem, that is I cannot install .bzr packages from AUR as the process stops at " Connecting to Bazaar server" with server timeout message. Until this point everything is fine. Can you probably help in that too?

Emulate mouse scroll with keyboard [solved]

I'd like to be achieve a mouse scroll wheel functionality with keyboard, that is, to be able to scroll n lines by using a keyboard shortcut. Page up/down jumps too much and arrow up/down is quite slow and not so eye-friendly. So I'd like to be able to scroll, say, five lines down when pressing something like Ctrl + arrow down.
I'm using KDE 4.3 at the moment and couldn't find anything related in the settings, so I'm guessing it requires a bit more effort. Would it be possible to map some keys into sending an event similar to the event that is caused by scrolling the scroll wheel? I tried to see what xev says about scrolling the wheel, but that didn't help much.

Maybe xbindkeys with xdotool, but I don't know if this is without lag.
Something like this in .xbindkeysrc
"xdotool key --clearmodifiers Up Up Up Up Up"
Control + Up

Some other info:
You know that you can control Photoshop input fields http://screencast.com/t/ApVseKYRxz with the mouse scroll wheel. Pretty handy indeed. You just have to click on the field and spin the wheel and values changing.
The problem:
My mouse wheel cannot control the input fields in this way. I select the field, spin the wheel and nothing happen. When I spin it faster a couple of times, than the values get changing - pretty strange ha? Scrolling normally - do not change, scrolling fast change. But to scroll fast is not an option because I cannot change the values slightly with small increments... There is a bug really...
What I tried and didn't work:
1. Restarted Photoshop
2. Plug/Unplug and change different USB slots for both receivers.
3. Reintalling latest SetPoint Drivers (after uninstall I run ccleaner)
4. Put all SetPoint settings to defaults (because I programmed some mouse keys to Photoshop specifically).
5. Install earlier versions of SetPoint drivers.
6. Set my UEFI BIOS to defaults.
7. Restarted the BIOS to load all the drivers again, but still no luck
(the last think I didn't do is to reinstall Photoshop)
What I have investigated so far:
1. When I restart the computer and run Photoshop it works perfect HA! , but after a seconds it do not words again ...
2. When I stop SetPoint software, when I shut down it, it words perfect.
3. When I unplug keyboard receiver it words perfect, but I do not have keyboard:)
4. Everything works perfect in Illustrator and After effects.
5. Also I noticed that when I scroll images in CameraRaw - http://screencast.com/t/xKnn6cY9 the I have to scroll harder and spin the wheel harder to scroll - the same problem.
6. Also in photoshop and bridge scrolling here - is pretty smooth and works perfect - http://screencast.com/t/75IXMG6Zria
Maybe the most important part - When I start experiencing the problem:
I had same configuration , same everything and everything worked fine.
I installed SSD disk, reinstalled Windows (same like before), updated my BIOS to UEFI. Installed Photoshop and SetPoint and problem started.
Posted same request to Logitech, but want to ask you for help too.
Thanks!

Hi all,
I found a solution.
1. Uninstall your current Setpoint Driver.
2. Run CCleaner - http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner
3. Download an older version of SetPoint - http://www.oldapps.com/setpoint.php
(I used SetPoint 6.15 (x64), I tried 6.20, 6.32, 6.50 , but no luck)
4. Now everything is all right!
Thanks!
Can somebody mark this as solved? Thanks!

System Settings will not save my desired mouse scroll direction

I understand the Apple genius of wanting the Settings: Mouse: Scroll direction: Natural box to be checked. But **** it, this is MY iMac and I want the scroll direction to remain Unchecked, so the screen scrolls in the direction I’ve been used to for YEARS.
The problem is the System Settings will not save the unchecked scroll box. I have to return to the System Settings every time I log on to UN check the Scroll Direction: Natural box.
Will Apple ever fix this so that I, and others, can operate the scrolling as THEIR LONG-TIME USER sees fit?

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Loss of Mouse Scroll Wheel Function

I took a leap and a leap of faith upgrading from Firefox 3.something to 11.0. I'm working through the little annoying differences in the user interface, but I'm having a problem with scrolling.
I can't put my finger on any particular web site or page size, but I find that occasionally my mouse scroll wheel will stop working with Firefox and I must use the scroll bar to move through a document. Once it goes, it's gone. I can move to another tab that previously scrolled with the wheel and it no longer does.
If I close Firefox and restart it, the scroll wheel works again (even with the page on which it previously quit. If I leave Firefox running but switch to another application, the scroll wheel works there, so it's unlikely that the driver has become corrupted.
I'm running Windows XP SP3 and Firefox 11.0 (downloaded and installed 4/5/2012)

I doubt that I have a PDF open in another tab because I don't use the PDF plug-in to Firefox. When I go to a web site with a PDF and click on it, I get a pop-up that asks if I want to open it (I use Foxit) or save the file. I often have a PDF open when I'm on a web site however. I just opened one and everything's still OK. Then I went to a web site where I clicked on a PDF and told it to open it with Foxit, and things are still OK.
Like I said, I haven't yet found anything that consistently makes it happen.
As for updates, I really want to know if there's anything specific that might cause this problem. I don't like to make updates, not even Windows updates, unless I see that the update either solves a problem or gives me a feature that I really need. I look at the Windows updates and they all seem to be about security, which isn't a problem here. In the case of installing the new Firefox, I was getting tired of web sites telling me that I had an unsupported web browser (though usually I could get what I wanted). I'm NOT going to just let Windows do what it wants with my computer. I depend on it too much to do that.
Could it be that something that Firefox needs is running out of memory after browsing for a while? Is there something I could check for that? I think I have 1 GB of RAM in this Pentium 4.

Adobe Muse - Smooth Scrolling to Anchors Using Mouse Scroll

I am wondering if there is a way to set up smooth scrolling to anchors with the mouse scroll in adobe muse. I can do it using links, but it would be great if the user could just start scrolling and it smoothly jumps to the next section. This looks great and would solve the issues created by variant mouse wheel speeds. Any help would be great, thanks!
Here is an example: Layers

There is a widget that does this quite well. I posted it earlier, but it mist have had a mistake... or someone deleted it? Oh well, if it disappears I wont repost it haha.

Spice on KVM, mouse scrolling no longer works

Hi,
Using a redhat workstation, I have installed archlinux on KVM using virt-manager, set the display to spice and video to qxl. On the guest arch linux, I have installed from AUR xf86-video-qxl and spice-vdagent. So far so good. However, scrolling using the wheel mouse does not work anymore when the spice-vdagentd is running. If I stop spice-vdagent, scrolling works again.
Anybody have a workaround with spice-vdagent and mouse scrolling?
Thanks in advance.

It probably needs a clean the instructions are at
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302417
I clean the scroll ball about every 4 weeks or so

Why does the mouse scroll no longer work in Firefox 4?

I upgraded to Firefox 4 and suddenly my mouse scroll no longer works. It works fine for other programs and IE also Chrome, just not Firefox 4. How do I fix this? If this cannot be fixed, how can resort back to the old version?

Spoke too soon. It worked fine for 10 minutes then died again. Closed and re-opened Firefox and it's working again. If this keeps up I will end up back with Chrome or IE. Way too inconvenient for me to stay with a browser and lose this functionality.

Flex 3 - Mouse Scrolling

For some reason Flex 3 does not understand the mouse scroll to move the scrollbar vertically. Is there anyway to make that work?

Should work on Windows. Do you have a simple test case that fails?

Mouse scroll wheel not working correctly.

Just installed Firefox 4 and my mouse scroll wheel is not working correctly. When opening the program, I can scroll as normal for about 5/10 minutes. Then, suddenly, the mouse scroll wheel no longer works. I've since found that it is actually scrolling outside of Firefox. E.g. I had Outlook open and it was scrolling through my Outlook even though Firefox was the open window. I checked this multiple times and it always seems to be the case.
Checked about:config as advised, everything looks correct on the mousewheel settings (i.e everything is set to default). Mouse drivers are up to date. No problems with any other programs. This issue started occurring in Firefox 4 beta. I switched back to 3.6 so I could continue scrolling. Updating to Firefox 4 caused the issue to recur.

It seems a lot of people are having problems with the Mighty Mouse's scroll ball. I actually thought I was done for after just a few weeks of using my first (wired) one. But here I am years later with my wireless variant, beeing perfectly happy with it (in case you don't know, the wireless Mighty Mouse is a much better option due to it's laser based tracking system). In my experience, getting rid of fluff that interferes with the ball is quite easy on both types. Try blowing really hard directly at the trackball (optionally while you press it down with some pointed device) a few times. Rotate it and repeat as needed. Alternatively roll the mouse upside down on the microfiber cloth that probably came with your Mac.

Mouse Scroll is not working in safari

Hi
After instlling Safari on my Win 7, could not use mouse scroll to navigate through the pages (scroll up and down).
Went through few posts and found the solution by installing "Microsoft Intellipoint latest software ver."
Downloaded directly from Microsoft Download Center & now IT WORKS.
Got the idea from PhDj's post https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2390501?start=0&tstart=0, wanted to write in the same post but it's archived, thanks PhDj's.
Have fun.
Masood Faruki

thanks
i got the solution.
Enable the "Video chat enhancements" lab in Gmail or select 'enable high resolution video' in your Chat settings in iGoogle or Google+. The Video Chat Enhancements is under "Labs" in your Gmail Settings. It works fine.

Have you tried reversing your mouse 180 degrees? Then it works fine for you.
