Linuxfags can still not scroll the way it is ment to be
Why do you even have a Thinkpad?
>>52080612
That's literally the worst way to scroll.
>>52080666
you dont use it? Lol enjoy your RSI.
All i do is click the middlemouse button, and move the mouse up and down slightly.
comfiest way to browse
not switching to native linux until they fixed this bug
The 4 way scrolling is on Linux though, the fuck you're talking about
It's all about the nipple scrolling on thinkpads. Hold the middle mouse button and pull the nipple gently down. Feels great.
But we can scroll like that. Don't be silly, OP.

This. I like to slowly drag down pages as I read.

>This Windows feature has never really made its way into the Unix world. In the Unix world, the primary purpose of the middle mouse button is to paste the clipboard content (or more precisely, text selected with the mouse, which is auto-copied).
I seriously had no idea how much I'd miss this shit when i switched to linux

That's quite uncommon. I do that as well, though most people ask "how did you do that, femanonanon?".I started using it because the scrollwheel broke on my old mouse and had no other option (besides dragging the scrollbar with click 1, lol). Since then even on my new mouse I use it (: It's just better.

>uncommon
lmao what the fuck are you smoking
>>52081285
Very few people use it (read: know about it)
>>52080800
its a clitoris, not a nipple. you are literally giving orgasms to your thinkpad everytime you scroll.
>>52080612
there is only one acceptable way. use a (non-free-spinning) scroll wheel the usual way, disable smooth scrolling.
the scroll wheel click can't be used for scrolling, you need that for the actual click functionality (opening new tabs).
>>52081602
enabling autoscrolling does not disable that feature. you can even open/close new tabs the same way...
>what is scrollwheel
OP confirmed for mentally challenged
>>52082046
so you click the scroll wheel, the scroll thingy shows up and you can scroll by moving your mouse. now hover over a link and click the scroll wheel again.
expected result: link opens in new tab
actual result: scroll thingy closes. needs another click to open new tab.
>>52080612
Why would I put up with that shit when I could scroll with the trackpoint, trackpad, or scroll wheel on my mouse?
>>52080612
U WOT M9?
>webm related
>>52082192
I've never seen autoscrolling have a toggle, it usually disables when letting go of the middle-mouse button. But I see how that can get annoying if that's the case.
Shit some threads really take the cake for being absolute garbage.
>Linix cant scrol liek dis
>zomg yis ieet can u newbie watch!
>no im better
>yis u suxk
>most ppl doesnt even KNOWS about it guise!!1 We 1337 hurr.
>>52082192
That sounds incredibly annoying, having to conciously avoid pointing over links when you wanna stop scrolling.
>>52080612
Your bait is weak.
Got anything more to say about linux?
A full customizable linux modulated kernel.
>Not understanding that your feature was programmed to exist. Linux can have it two with the same, or less effort of coding.
>>52082399
which is why you should use wheel up/down for scrolling, leaving the pointer free to do whatever you want to do.

I never knew it was auto-copied, thanks anon
Autoscrolling is disabled by default on Firefox in Linux. Don't ask me why, just don't be a fucking retard.

>it only works on firefox or chrome
wow and you said linux was better
That works in FF on every Linux system I've ever used. It also works on all application on my X220 running stock xubuntu.

I didn't declare anything and I didn't request any priviledges you bloody moron. But why should I not refer to my self as a female which I am, just because you don't like it? Sod off.
