on my lenovo ideapad s10-3 running ubuntu 10.10 two finger scrolling did not work, the option in gnome-mouse-properties is disabled (greyed out). i installed the package "gpointing-device-settings", which allowed me to activate two-finger scrolling. however after waking up from suspend (don't know about reboot right now) it forgot the settings and used the value defined in gnome-mouse-properties (probably because x is reinitialized and it rereads the gnome-mouse-properties).
however using gconf-editor or gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/scroll_method 2 --type int i could actually set the value to two finger scrolling (scroll_method=2) and it keeps the setting after suspend. thus it seems to me that this is a gui bug, where the gnome-mouse-properties gui does not detect the capabilities of the touchpad correctly. -- Two-finger scrolling doesn't work on synaptics touchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
