Re: reverse scrolling in terminal

If you want to reverse the scroll direction in Xfce you can do so in the Mouse and Touchpad settings, under Devices and Buttons, there is a check-box for Reverse scroll direction.

Re: reverse scrolling in terminal

Thank you Ferdinand, unfortunately I have the scrolling-pad problem only in Terminal app. How can I change the scrolling mode in terminal app?

Re: reverse scrolling in terminal

Start by specifying "terminal app", there're plenty.

Wild guess, you may try to

export GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1

but notice that you need to export that TO the terminal process, NOT "in" the terminal.
