Using VMware embedded Ubuntu in Windows, it is found that the mouse wheel function is unavailable. I found it online and said it was a problem with the xorg. conf configuration file. The modification process is as follows:
Sudo gedit/etc/X11/xorg. conf
Set

Replace
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
My xorg. conf was added without this statement.
Ctrl + alt + backspace restart X, still no effect.
I checked it online and found that my configuration was missing:
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
In addition, my Driver is: Driver "vmmouse"
Generally, the Driver "mouse"
