[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1897249] Re: Scrolling in Chromium stops working when moving mouse when running in virtual machine
I'm not using the virtual machine anymore so I can't check it right now, but it shouldn't be hard to reproduce if anyone wants to follow up. Like I mentioned in the linked Chromium bug, this happens in both Virtualbox and VMWare, so this is not specific to either one of them. I can't remember if I ever tried uninstalling guest additions (although I think so). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897249 Title: Scrolling in Chromium stops working when moving mouse when running in virtual machine Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in falkon package in Ubuntu: New Status in qutebrowser package in Ubuntu: New Status in chromium package in Arch Linux: New Status in chromium package in openSUSE: New Bug description: When Ubuntu is running in a virtual machine scrolling in Chromium stops working when moving the mouse even the slightest.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1897249] Re: Scrolling in Chromium stops working when moving mouse when running in virtual machine
Well, that guy probably had a hardware issue, but this is not a hardware issue. I have tried several mice, all of them are acting the same way. Also, the fact that not all apllications are affected, and the fact that not all operating systems are affected at all should make it pretty clear that this is a software issue. The fact that this only happens inside virtual machines suggest that it might be more of a driver/kernel issue or somehow related to the guest handling of the simulated mouse in virtual machines. I have read somewhere that the virtual mouse is represented by two mouse devices, one which controls the movement and the other controls the scrolling (and possibly the buttons, can't remember the details). I have however recently found an old forum thread https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3=79002=ae3639b6f48a63da8441d6582880d2e7=15 which seems to be referring to the same issue. Here there are several workarounds being suggested by different people, while the one that worked for me was using imwheel. I have no idea how or why this works, but this does at least makes my scrolling work again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897249 Title: Scrolling in Chromium stops working when moving mouse when running in virtual machine Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in falkon package in Ubuntu: New Status in qutebrowser package in Ubuntu: New Status in chromium package in Arch Linux: New Status in chromium package in openSUSE: New Bug description: When Ubuntu is running in a virtual machine scrolling in Chromium stops working when moving the mouse even the slightest.
