I Just installed l-ubuntu, and installed LXDE on it. First of all I really love the LXDE due to its high performance. But what I don't liked that I am not able to do the natural mouse scrolling (inverted scrolling).
Can someone help me out
I used this line in my shell : echo "pointer = 1 2 3 5 4 7 6 8 9 10 11 12" > ~/.Xmodmap && xmodmap .Xmodmap
But it's actually not working for me
Any other solution?
You should actually use
$ xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
to load the configuration. If not at your home directory when executing
$ xmodmap .Xmodmap
you probably get
xmodmap: unable to open file '.Xmodmap' for reading
xmodmap: 1 error encountered, aborting.
If that still doesn't solve the issue, Natural Scrolling in Lubuntu 17.04 has several alternatives, which seem to have helped some. A summary:
~/.Xmodmap and reload it, as described above./usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-libinput.conf as shown here, which includes both the pointer and touchpad./usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-synaptics-conf as shown here.gsettings with gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad natural-scroll true or gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad natural-scroll false. You can also do this via gui, with dconf-editor (may require installing it).
Under Keyboard and Mouse configuration there might also be the option "Natural Scrolling". If that's on then the wheel is inverted.
