--- Comment #64 from Hadriscus <r29...@gmail.com> ---
Ok I just tried with my wife's Lenovo E560 from 2016, and there's no issue.
Here is a quick info dump from Windows' "device manager" :

ThinkPad UltraNav
Driver provider : AlpsAlpine
Driver version : 8.216.1616.174

On my laptop (which encounters the issue), the same place says :

IHM mouse
Driver provider : Microsoft
Driver version : 10.0.19041.1

I'm not sure that is helpful at all.

I should mention that it is a much more sensitive trackpad than hers. I don't
really know how a trackpad works, but my understanding is that trackpads have a
set resolution/matrix. If the program somehow reads the input from the trackpad
as absolute, instead of relative to the trackpad's resolution, it might explain
the difference in sensitivity.

If I'm not being totally clear, here is an example : trackpad A and trackpad B
both have the same effective area, but trackpad B has a denser matrix, hence
finer-grained detection -so, for the same effective distance travelled by
fingers, it sends twice as many scroll events to the program. There should be
some sort of remapping, I guess, using the trackpad matrix density as a
divider. I can only assume this information exists and is available because any
other programs I use do not suffer from the issue.

What do you think, does that make any sense ?
