i can confirm the vertical scrolling issue on my compal hel80.
$ dmesg | grep input
[1.283156] input: Power Button (FF) as
/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input0
[1.283201] input: Lid Switch as
/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0D:00/input/input1
[1.283284] input: Power Butt
I also went to System | Preferences | Mouse then the new Touchpad tab:
the vertical scrolling box was checked. I tried unchecking it, and
scrolling still did not work; I went back to the Mouse preferences and
re-enabled the vertical scrolling, but scrolling still did not work.
