I totally agree. Unfortunately it's a problem we have inherited from
Gnome 3.x. So many configuration options are hidden.
If you can't find what you need in gnome-control-center then open a terminal
and run "synclient" which will show you many settings for touchpads at least.
Also, for any input device type you can run:
xinput list-props N
where N is a number shown by running "xinput" by itself. You can also use
xinput to customize settings.
If you want to make such a command set on log in, you can add it as a
startup program in "gnome-session-properties".

Bug description:
This has been driving me nuts for a while now. The scroll wheel on my
desktop mouse (it's an MS wireless optical mouse model 1008) scrolls
rather fast. Instead of moving a few lines, it scrolls half a page or
more with a very gentle scroll. The bluetooth mouse I use with my
laptop does not do this so it's probably somewhat hardware specific.
However, I'm wondering if there is a way to modify the speed or
sensitivity. I found an answer here from about a year ago
(https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/1339) that suggests
there isn't a way but I'm wondering if anything has changed since
then. I've also skimmed through synaptic but didn't see anything
promising (like gsynaptic for touchpads).
Thanks.
