    I'm trying my very best to love Linux but I'm having so much trouble with Mint.

    I'm running a Mint vm on a proxmox to try it out and for some reason my back button and forward button on my mouse maps to the scroll wheel. The scroll wheel is mapped correctly. I installed Spice to improve performance and so far it's amazing, but the mouse is annoying.

    If I run RDP, it works perfectly, but the lag is too annoying.

    Does anyone here have suggestions? Thanks.

    Does the mouse need drivers? You could search for the model name and "Linux drivers" to see if the company offers anything

    Its a logitech G502SE. It doesn't look like it has drivers. I also had problems with a logitech steering wheel when I was running Mint on bare metal. Just not a very linux friendly company.

    Ah yeah, that's been my experience too with Logitech. Such a shame because they make some pretty good peripherals.

    I guess it makes sense. Why make peripherals for 4% of the population?

    you could try installing antimicrox I had to install it for my azeron keypad to even work for some reason I don't remember why it was a long time ago

    I installed something similar to this called "Input Mapper". The problem is the mouse key is not differentiating from the scroll inputs. So I can't remap something that isn't there.
