Just my 2 cents. I have a Hewlitt Packard Desktop coming in the mail from a biker bro.
Getting a ball mouse ready for it. I pulled the ball out of the Dell Wheel Mouse.
Sprayed a little WD-40 on the roller pins and roller wheel.
Stuck a rag in to wipe it out.

You'd be surprised at the crap I pulled out attached to that rag.
Reassembled the mouse. Tested it on my IBM M41 Desktop in MacPup 525 and MX-14 Linux.

Works like new again. Before. I thought I was going to throw it out.

I always 1st check hardware before blaming software. Just my 2 cents.
