The Konsole problem has a bug filed bug 355755 Same issue in Antergos as well. same bug raised on opensuse, with details https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1018967 Scroll direction setting fails in all programs. It was working in Kubuntu 16.10 but since installing the 17.04 daily it no longer works. I rely on this for fixing the broken zoom direction that's occurring on more recent 3D programs. When I ask them to provide a fix in their software they just say it's the normal way (which I know is not true) and close the issue. I looked into this a little bit. This only seams to happen with libinput and not with evdev. I tried this: https://gist.github.com/Zarokka/10ac4cecd5ebc5ce815136a2853850d4 This did not fix the issue however. But maybe it is related to the setting having the name "ReverseScrollPolarity" and that it is called "NaturalScroll" in libinput. I too followed the description in https://forum.manjaro.org/t/solved-kde-reverse-natural-scrolling-not-working/5778/3 and edited /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf and added the Option "NaturalScrolling" "true" entry in the first section: Section "InputClass" Identifier "evdev pointer catchall" MatchIsPointer "on" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Driver "evdev" Option "NaturalScrolling" "true" EndSection and the third section: Section "InputClass" Identifier "evdev touchpad catchall" MatchIsTouchpad "on" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" Driver "evdev" Option "NaturalScrolling" "true" EndSection All worked correctly after a reboot Thankyou Andrew, That at least is a useable workaround. On a possibly related note, I've noticed the mouse speed/acceleration setting also is not adjustable. PS: I pasted that verbatim into the closest matching file - 10-quirks.conf - rather than 10-evdev.conf. I believe this might be easy to fix as long as everyone is setting "Reverse scroll direction" in Mouse Controls System Settings locate kcminputrc | xargs grep ReverseScrollPolarity A lot of the comments are using other methods to handle this (In reply to Kurt Hindenburg from comment #9) > I believe this might be easy to fix as long as everyone is setting "Reverse > scroll direction" in Mouse Controls System Settings > > locate kcminputrc | xargs grep ReverseScrollPolarity > > A lot of the comments are using other methods to handle this Ah ignore this comment - I replied to wrong bug report. *** Bug 378875 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Bug still present in Kubuntu 17.10 daily. Bug still present in 17.10 release. No workaround available to non IT users and family. Plasma: 5.8.6 Framework: 5.28.0 Qt: 5.7.1 Bug still present. Checkbox in System Settings->Hardware->Input Devices->Mouse has no effect: checked or unchecked, no difference. Is anyone able to reproduce this? I believe it may have since been fixed. It's good for me Thanks! |
