I used to have a mouse with forward and back buttons and they seemed to work fine.

Have you tried dual booting on bare metal? I'm thinking it could be VM weirdness, since using something else makes it work fine.

I'm pretty sure it's the proxmox that is making it weird.

My work revolves around using Win11. I have a 3rd screen dedicated to Mint so I can easily switch between systems without much effort.

I think the issue is Spice. It runs the quickest with almost zero lag, but my mouse isn't perfect. RDP works but there is input lag. I guess I can try another VNC to see if things improve.

I build your solution some time ago and wasn't impressed, too.

I actually run fedora on work an virtualized my win partition with "p2v" into a cow2 file. Now if I need windows I run it via qemu.

My work is 70% Windows, 20% Mac, 10% Linux. I manage website optimization and use the different systems for testing.

Why do you like Fedora more?

If you get a reasonable amount of downtime off of work, you might be able to set up Mint and run Windows in a VM if you really need to. I feel like that might work better. I'm not sure though as I haven't virtualised an OS in years.

If the problem is spice it might still be a problem though.

That's not a bad idea. Would I just run wine for the VM?

Ya I guess I can try using RDP or some other VNC. Might be better than using Spice.

GNU/Linux has VM platforms too. But you can run individual things in WINE and see if they work too. I think GNOME Boxes works fine. I'm not sure if it would suit your needs but you can try it.

Thank you!
