Trackball Scroll Setup Ubuntu 21.10 – Step-by-step

Setting Up

  1. 2. Finding Button

    How to Find the Trackball Button ID

    Find Device Button on Ubuntu
  2. 3. Setting Up

    Then to Enable Trackball Scrolling in Ubuntu 21.10
    Use this simple Command:

    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.trackball scroll-wheel-emulation-button 8

    Possibly change the Button Number as of your choice…
    So then to Scroll Up & Down on a Web Page is enough to Press the Button and Roll the Trackball.
    And moreover, as I said on Intro the ‘Page Back’ functionality is preserved on Click and Release.

So Now I am truly Happy if My Guide could Help you to Set the Trackball Scrolling in Ubuntu 21.10 Desktop!
