I'm a Kubuntu fan. Never seen a mouse problem, even when run virtually, but that's just me.

Unlike with Windows, and to a similar degree macOS, where vendors create all the drivers themselves, Linux driver support isn't there for everything. Your mouse would work fine if you got a compatible mice for which good drivers exist. Same for other parts of your setup. But this requires research.

  This is a known issue with wayland: https://gist.github.com/generic-internet-user/e8eec46ce159571032115f6fb064523c https://gist.github.com/generic-internet-user/e8eec46ce15957.... The incompetence is showing, just write code and ship it without a single care about the most basic bug there is. Let the users figure it out.
