UPDATE: This is a bug related to the current version of xorg-server and xf86-input-evdev shipping on Ubuntu 12.04. More information here and here.
It's really impressive how well Unreal runs in Linux. The only thing I'm having problems with is my scroll wheel, and I was wondering if anyone else has a similar issue or knows something I could try to fix it. Outside of the game, there's no problem, but in game scrolling works about half the time. Any ideas?

Scroll down or Scroll up? Or both?

Both. Clicking the scroll wheel button works fine, it's just when scrolling. Sometimes it registers, sometimes not.

Re: Anyone else have scroll wheel problems?
when scrolling what? Scrolling the weapons as in weaponswitch or scrolling inside the UBrowser?
Scrolling f.e. in the news page of the UBrowser doesn't work, its simply a flaw in this system there...

Re: Anyone else have scroll wheel problems?
actually no idea, indeed it worked for me in Linux always a bit more reliably than in windoze. You may want to try 227i pre-release as reference?

that's good news for the patch - always a problem are the many differences between the distros, which also often requires a ton of additional settings to work through...
