(Get the code!)
This still hasn't been fixed? This is embarrassing. I bought a new mouse, and not only can I not use the scroll wheel effectively in Ubuntu (I need to spin it four or five times to move a paragraph), the mouse cursor traverses my 2560-pixel wide desktop in under 2cm of tabletop movement on the minimum available speed setting.
I get it, first world problems - but this is elementary for a desktop UI system. The fact that this hasn't been implemented in a *decade of Ubuntu development* is shamefully irresponsible.
I'm annoyed but capable of going and hacking my RCs in order to get xinput to fix this, but most Ubuntu users *cannot* be expected or even *able* to put up with this to get their *mouse to work properly*.
