I just replaced my old Logitech mouse with a Microsoft Wireless Laser mouse, and the scrolling is too fast for my liking.
How can I adjust the scroll sensitivity?
Update:
I just updated to 10.04, but still don't see anything. Any changes?
This totally depends on which interface you are using. If you are using KDE check this out if you are using Gnome check this out.
Currently in Gnome there is really no way to change this except in programs themselves. Example: Firefox's about:config you can change the mouse scroll by lines entry. From what I have read it is hard coded into either gtk or xorg.
For Firefox addon options a friend said SmoothWheel works wonders for him
I can't take credit for this, I read it somewhere else. I am running Mint 13, Cinnamon. If you are using MS Wireless:
Mouse Wheel scrolling set to reasonable speed.
Try resetmsmice, which will fix this problem, without having to unplug and replug the mouse receiver. Many thanks to the author Paul F Richards, also the Ubuntu launchpad bug report
I edited some about:config and works great. (Firefox 7.0.1, with Gnome on Linux 11.04)
If it's still fast, also change:
