About this package
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***RECENT UPDATE***: some recent linux distributions that have Wayland or Xorg 
 that use libinput have this glitch fixed, so you might not need this 
 utility. I have heard conflicting reports, so your mileage may vary.

This package, resetmsmice, fixes scroll wheel issues with certain Wireless
 Microsoft mice in X.org (includes KDE & Gnome applications), where the 
 vertical wheel scrolls abnormally fast. Only needed if you dual boot between 
 Microsoft Windows and some linux distro.
Known to fix the vertical scroll wheel issue with the following models 
(and others related):
    Microsoft Wireless Mouse 1000
    Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 3000
    Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 3500
    Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000
    Microsoft Comfort Mouse 4500
    Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000
    Microsoft Sculpt Mouse
This program basically just resets a setting in the mouse through usb 
communications and then exits.  

Please let me know if this works for your mouse not listed above!!!

If you have a Gnome, KDE, or Unity desktop, go to the Settings submenu and 
you will see an icon there for 'Microsoft Mouse Settings' for launching 
the program.

To launch it from the command line run (with gui):
resetmsmice-gui

To launch it from the command line (without gui):
resetmsmice

From the graphical interface you can enable/disable the mouse to be reset on boot or reset right now. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To have the package run on system bootup on the command line
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By default the make install script sets up the package to run on boot, but if
you disable it and ever need to enable it manually again run as root:
sudo resetmsmice-enable-boot --enable

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To disable resetmsmice from starting on bootup on the command line
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
as root type: 
sudo resetmsmice-enable-boot --disable

This will stop resetmsmice from running on bootup.
