Mouse scrolls insanely fast.

When I scroll my mouse wheel one tick, it actually scrolls about 8 times along the rotation. Using `xinput test` reveals that it is seeing multiple button presses per click. This is in contrast to another computer that does not see this, and does not have this issue. I have tried creating a udev rule to set the scroll wheel angle as suggested in https://unix.stackexchange.com/question … -sensitive, to no avail. These are the properties of my mouse as given by `xinput list-props 10`

Device 'Logitech G903 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse w/ HERO':

I have tried messing will all the scroll related options, and they either do something different or appear to do nothing.

Re: Mouse scrolls insanely fast.

Hey it's the same mouse. Since I'm not using X on the machine where I have the issue I tried to quirk it in a /etc/libinput/local-overrides.quirks but it doesn't look like it sends actual proper high res events, but bog standard ticks for every little movement of the wheel.
libinput debug-events --verbose gives something like

 event7   POINTER_SCROLL_WHEEL    +12.672s      vert 15.00/120.0* horiz 0.00/0.0 (wheel)

which should not happen that uniformly on actual high res implementations if https://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinpu … l-api.html is to be believed.  So something must throw the thing off kilter when the querying logic in https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/ … pp.c#L3974 is called, you can probably "fix" the issue by just not doing that one, will have to enable some debug logs to check what is actually happeing. Probably gonna call it a night for now, will check/test some more tomorrow/possibly at the weekend. Though FWIW from checking this could also just be an implementation detail of KWin Wayland in my case since proper high res handling will only land in 5.27 https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/co … a8b4036112

FWIW the "about 8" aligns with what is configured if debug logging is enabled:

[ 4381.371067] logitech-hidpp-device 0003:046D:C091.0010: HID++ 4.2 device connected.
[ 4381.418934] logitech-hidpp-device 0003:046D:C091.0010: Detected HID++ 2.0 hi-res scroll wheel
[ 4381.434062] logitech-hidpp-device 0003:046D:C091.0010: wheel multiplier = 8

The mouse supports altering the wheel mode and apparently the toggle button is prone to accidental use.
Does it impact the generated events?

Re: Mouse scrolls insanely fast.

No, they'll just have the "expected" higher frequency number of events (afaik this really isn't a software button and just impacts how free flowy the wheel is, it doesn't generate a software event when pressed ). Basically the mouse doesnt really scroll by ticks anymore but gets events in the middle between the ticks (if the "button" is relevantly locked). It seems like at least for this case we'd need to quirk/disable it on the kernel level again. From an "intentions" perspective I'm assuming it would (and maybe does on the mices that used to be explicitly enabled with quirks) switch to hi-res mode when the wheel is unlocked and back to ticks mode when not but I don't think this particular mouse actively changes anything of the sort.

Re: Mouse scrolls insanely fast.

I can confirm that this is an issue with the kernel. After booting into lts, this behaviour has been fixed. V1del, if you can also replicate this workaround, that would suggest to me that there is a regression in the kernel, as this issue was not present in previous releases (although I am no expert on these matters).

Re: Mouse scrolls insanely fast.

Did some more checks, interestingly the issue doesn't pop up if you use the mouse wirelessly with the lightspeed pad/dongle that came with it, only in wired mode it seems to basically generate both the "hi-res events" and the normal full rotation click event at basically the same time. Wirelessly there's a clear distinction between the high res and the "click" event.

Re: Mouse scrolls insanely fast.

I could not get the quirks to work anymore so i used https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xf86 … res-scroll instead which worked after a reboot.
