I have a rather frustrating issue with my mouse wheel. When I left my mouse alone for like 5 seconds the next time I try to scroll, it wont register the input. I have to rotate the wheel 2-3 times for a response, and after that it is really sluggish. However, if I move the mouse first it is working just fine. It does not matter if the mouse is wireless or not. I have tried multiple mice Asus, Trust, Logitech, Lidl, same result. I have installed Zorin roughly 3 months ago, this is my first time on Linux so I am really out of the water with any kind of trouble shooting.
Thank you in advance!
I have the same issue, and never figured it out. But I suspect it has something to do with the mouse, entering a sleep state when not in use. I too have had this issue with several mice, such as Logitech, and SteelSeries. Maybe an answer will find both of us, in this thread.
I only read that using imwheel helps for this issue- but this program is no more maintained and sometimes causes other problems. It can only be used on Xorg not on Wayland. At loginscreen (cogwheel) you can switch to Xorg.
The first link shows a simple configuration. Scroll down until
