Logitech M560 scrolling is more sensitive in 15.04

Question

After upgrading to 15.04, my (already sad and semiworking) Logitech M560 mouse is not working as in 14.10. The problem is that the scrolling is more sensitive than in the previous release.

Is there a way to fix it? I can't find support for it. (Also, can't bind the keys, but probably that is another question.)

Do you mean "sensitive"? "Sensible" means "making sense". Anyway, have you check Settings>Input Devices>Touchpad? — TheWanderer, May 05 '15 at 23:59
Yes, sensitive. And there is no configuration there for the mouse. — adn, May 06 '15 at 00:01
OK. Try this. Run sudo apt-get install kde-touchpad and then search Touchpad in Unity Dash. This should give you more options. Also look here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/254847/how-do-i-adjust-the-pointer-speed-and-scrolling-speed-of-a-trackpad. — TheWanderer, May 06 '15 at 00:06
I installed it, but it doesn't have the options. See the image above. — adn, May 06 '15 at 00:32
Wrong program. Hold on, I'm going into to Unity to try it out. — TheWanderer, May 06 '15 at 00:33
OK. Install KDE System Settings, open that from the Dash and go into Input Devices. — TheWanderer, May 06 '15 at 00:37
Make sure this is installed: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-lts-utopic. — TheWanderer, May 06 '15 at 00:45
No options for autocomplete. Also, I'm using unity, does that makes any difference? — adn, May 08 '15 at 23:04
No, that shouldn't. Search the package name, excluding utopic, in the Software Center. — TheWanderer, May 08 '15 at 23:25
@Zacharee1, How is installing a touchpad driver going to fix a mouse problem? — Merlijn Sebrechts, May 17 '15 at 12:14
@adn: Can you go to a terminal and type: synclient HorizHysteresis=16&&synclient VertHysteresis=16 If that doesn't help much, double the values and keep doubling them until it gets to the sensitivity you need. If the sensitivity suddenly becomes too high, go back to the previous setting. Then report back and I'll give you the perfect answer! ;-) — Fabby, May 21 '15 at 23:18
M500 is really proper working and not too much expensive like gamer mouses but with 5 buttons it already has 10 functions possibilitites ... ?! I only dont know if rubber is fitting to any skin (on hand) cause to mine hand this rubber is sometimes "stabbing" ?! + (deactivated sour) scorpion mouse ?! could this be ?! — dschinn1001, May 23 '15 at 23:38

Some thing you can try to make the mouse show up in system settings:

Change USB port of receiver
Turn mouse off and on again

Manage logitec unified receiver devices

Solaar is a program to manage logitech unified receiver devices. You can install it using following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:daniel.pavel/solaar
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install solaar

Unplug the receiver, plug it back in, and start Solaar. You should be able to see the device and change some of its options.

Is M560 supported? I can't find the device in the list – A.B. May 17 '15 at 12:14
@A.B. Good question. No idea. I tested it on my device and it worked, but my device is listed.. – Merlijn Sebrechts May 17 '15 at 12:26
@A.B. this answer seems to suggest it works... – Merlijn Sebrechts May 17 '15 at 12:28
Ok, I can see it. +1 – A.B. May 17 '15 at 12:57
