Hi all,
i am facing some issues with the mouse scroll speed. it is very slow in Chromium browser.
Arch is a Guest OS (LXDE UI) on Win10 machine.
The scroll speed on chromium is too much slow and scrolling pages is somewhat unpleasant. It seems everytime the wheel rotates it takes only half scroll inputs. This is more evident while using the browser. Don't know if I am clear.
Looking into the wiki i think it is not up to date.
I have xorg so I followed the related path.
I tried to look into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-mouse-deceleration.conf but the file is missing.
I tried using xset, but i get
[root@arch ~]# xset q | grep -A 1 Pointer
xset: unable to open display ""
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Are you sure it's the pointer and not general hardware acceleration? Do you have the corresponding guest utils installed? Which VM are we talking? Also you are unlikely to run Chromium or your X server on your root user, so run eventual xset commands as the user running the x session.

Hello V1del,
sorry i didn't want to bump the thread. I usually try before writing but since i didn't find anything.
Going back to your questions,
- yes i have guest utils installed
$ pacman -Ss guest utils
community/virtualbox-guest-utils 5.2.8-1 [installed]
VirtualBox Guest userspace utilities
- what do you mean by "Which VM are we talking"? I have already specified that in my post: Arch guest (up-to-date) with LXDE UI, Win10 host. Have I misunderstoof your question?
- i use root user only for administrator tasks through the command line. Chromium is executed using my normal user. I tried to run xset as normal user but i got a very similar message:
$ xset q | grep -A 1 Pointer
xset: unable to open display ":10"
Hope to have provided details you asked for.
Thanks
