#60 Mouse scroll wheel not working

[Antoine Tran]

Hi,

I am using Red Hat 6.5 with rdesktop 1.8.2 (tested with 1.8.3 too) and xrdp 0.5.0-0.13.el6 (tested with 0.6.1-3.el6 too). I tried to connect to the server using rdesktop but the scroll wheel does not work. xev does not show any reactions when scrolling up or down. But using middle button works. What do I have to do for the server to receive wheel events?

Here are some useful details:
a) Windows native rdesktop client -> linux VM xrdp 0.5.0 scroll OK
a) Linux rdesktop 1.8.2 -> Windows VM scroll OK

According to the rdesktop client developper (source here, the issue is with the xrdp implementation, not supporting "slow-path".

I haven't tried with latest xrdp 0.6.1-4.el6, from epel repo.

Thank you.
