I created a virtual machine with Ubuntu 12.10 on it in Hyper-V on Windows 8. I have a Logitech mouse with a scroll wheel that works fine when I'm not in the virtual machine. Is there a way to enable it in my virtual Ubuntu machine? I've been clicking and dragging on the scroll bars and it's getting old.

  • I have run software update in Ubuntu. Are there other places where I would update the driver?

Follow the instructions in the following module to enable to needed modules: http://baudlabs.com/how-to-install-hyper-v-integration-services-in-ubuntu-12-04-lts/

They are part of the Linux kernel now and just need to be enabled.

  • Did this work for everyone? I see the services running but alas, still no mouse scroll.

  • Yeah I agree. I have one vm where it is working, but a newer one where the modules are enabled and still no mouse wheel. Have not figured out why yet.
