I'm trying my very best to love Linux but I'm having so much trouble with Mint.

I'm running a Mint vm on a proxmox to try it out and for some reason my back button and forward button on my mouse maps to the scroll wheel. The scroll wheel is mapped correctly. I installed Spice to improve performance and so far it's amazing, but the mouse is annoying.

If I run RDP, it works perfectly, but the lag is too annoying.

Does anyone here have suggestions? Thanks.

I've run Mint in Virtual Box on Windows with no issues. Really though, the move from Windows to Mint is best done on bare metal.

Any OS is kinda garbage on VM. I tried to run windows in a VM on my linux, the performance is pure garbage, usbs are tricky and so on

Make sure to enable hardware virtualization on your BIOS/UEFI, and install guest additions.
