[SOLVED] How to stop permanent scroll?

setevoy · 2022-10-27 05:48:39

Hi.
Faced a weird issue. Seems that happened after another update.
The issue is... Well, if I move the mouse cursor over tabs in Chrome - tabs start to leaf through to the right, like if I scroll the mouse's wheel. Or the same, if put the cursor over any horizontal scrollbars (like in Dolphin, in the bottom right corner, the scroll that makes images bigger/smaller).

$ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer                          id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
⎜   ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer                id=4    [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ SIGMACHIP USB Keyboard Consumer Control   id=12   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ MOSART Semi. 2.4G Keyboard Mouse Consumer Control id=14   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ MOSART Semi. 2.4G Keyboard Mouse          id=16   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ Logitech M315/M235                        id=17   [slave  pointer  (2)]

I've tried to set it with `set-button-map` but that didn't help.

Even replaced my keyboard and mouse - still the same, so the issue seems to be somewhere on the software level.

Any suggestions, please?

Does it scroll only in one direction?
Run

xev -event mouse

and move the pointer over the xev window.
Do buttons 6 or 7 fire frequently?

The scroll is always in only one direction, yes.

Here is a result of the xev when placing the cursor over the window:

LeaveNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa200001,
    root 0x1e0, subw 0x0, time 204658511, (66,44), root:(1147,94),
    mode NotifyNormal, detail NotifyInferior, same_screen YES,
    focus YES, state 16400

MotionNotify event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0xa200001,
    root 0x1e0, subw 0xa200002, time 204658511, (66,44), root:(1147,94),
    state 0x4010, is_hint 0, same_screen YES

Doesn't looks like the scroll is displaying here, only the cursor's moves over the window.
Not sure about "buttons 6 or 7" - can't see any such numbers in output of the xev.

P.S.

Just checked the same for my keyboard, maybe something is wrong with it?
But again - nothing happens:

$ xev -event keyboard
Outer window is 0x9c00001, inner window is 0x9c00002

KeymapNotify event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    keys:  226 0   0   0   16  0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   
           0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   

KeyRelease event, serial 25, synthetic NO, window 0x9c00001,
    root 0x1e0, subw 0x0, time 205158525, (1148,840), root:(2229,890),
    state 0x10, keycode 36 (keysym 0xff0d, Return), same_screen YES,
"   XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (0d) "
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeymapNotify event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    keys:  224 0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   
           0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0

Only movements of the cursor.

The symptoms you describe are similar to a recent issue with xwayland. However that problem only applied to programs running in xwayland and has been fixed with an update earlier this week.

I don't know if dolphin runs in xwayland, but chrome will not run natively on wayland. It's a long shot, but if you are on wayland then what is your xorg-xwayland version?

setevoy · 2022-10-28 15:28:49

Nope, seems I'm running on Xorg:

$ echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
x11

Also, have no xorg-xwayland installed at all:

$ pacman -Qi xorg-xwayland
error: package 'xorg-xwayland' was not found

Okay... The issue became more and more interesting...
The same happens in Windows - loaded it today to play games...
- different mouses
- different keyboards
- different OS
The same story...

(no, it's not a joke, unfortunately)

PS
Okay. I'm an idiot)
Had a wifi receiver inserted on the back side of the PC, from my second wireless keyboard, which is not used, just have it somewhere in my apartment.
Thanks to everybody.
