regression: Xen Virtual Pointer does not initialize the scroll wheel
Last modified: 2014-10-14 00:57:05 EDT
Description of problem: The Xen Virtual Pointer device lost the scroll wheel during the 6.6 rebase. It's a result of smooth scrolling now enabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-evdev-2.8.2-3.el6 How reproducible: Initialize on a Xen guest, use the scrolling function. Or create the device from the description below with evemu-device, then run evemu-event --sync --device /path/to/device --type 2 --code 8 --value -1. That sends a REL_WHEEL event through the Xen device.
