Hi,

When I use the scrollwheel of the mouse my browser triggers 
back/forward. What happens is this:
If I scroll up (button 4) after scrolling down (button 5) it triggers 
button 8 and 9.
I see it generating a ButtonPress 8/9 if I go down and than up. And a 
ButtonRelease 8/9 if I first go up and than down.

I have no config in /etc/X11. Xorg logs: https://www.klop.ws/Xorg.0.log

This happens on the trackpad of the laptop and with a bluetooth 
connected mouse.
What makes it a little more complex is that this is running FreeBSD 14 
in VirtualBox on Windows 10 with. NB: It happened in Virtualbox 5 and 
now in 6 also.

This started around a year ago. 
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2020-March/117879.html 
But didn't have time to look into it.

Any thoughts or similar experiences?

Regards,
Ronald.
