Depends on the hardware. On my laptop it's fantastic. Very fine

Yes. Remove (or purge, depending on preference ;) overlay-scrollbar, e.g.
$ sudo apt-get remove overlay-scrollbar
Log out and in, all should be chunky.

So apparently I do. Still a major PITA to use with Empathy though. A
total loss of fine control.

Which netbook is it?
Easiest way to try is move your finger forward and back along the
right hand edge when in a scrollable window.

I get this on most apps with 11.04 - very annoying. I can see the point
is that the up and down scroll arrows are now close together for people
who use the up and down arrows - but, as I normally just click on the
gutter next to where my pointer happens to be, I'm also finding it very,
very annoyin

Hi
So since I have upgraded to 11.04 on my netbook I have found that
Empathy has lost it's scrollbar in the contacts list and is replaced
with a fiddly up and down control. The control only appears when you
hover over the right edge of the contacts window. This is very tricky
when using a touchpad
