Scrolling in Linux/Ubuntu is either too slow or too fast

    For VM software that costs $100 per year, I'd at least expect the mouse to work. Can we fix this? No matter what I try, my scroll wheel only registers through evtest every N clicks on my MX Master 3. Works fine on VMWare Fusion Pro...which is free.

    To fix scrolling issues in Ubuntu on Parallels, try adjusting mouse settings or enabling "Smooth Scrolling" in the system settings. You can also update Parallels tools for better performance.

    Linux Ubuntu scrolling issues in Parallels can stem from mouse sensitivity or driver settings. Adjust input settings in Ubuntu or Parallels Tools for smoother, consistent scrolling performance.

    I've completely stopped using Parallels and just moved over to UTM. It works great. VMWare supports Linux better than Parallels, too. There's no reason for anyone to pay $120 per year to use an old kernel, buggy closed-source tools, and broken drivers when there are OSS or free solutions.
