There's a solution for trackpads. xinput list-props will give you something like this: Code: Device 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad': Device Enabled (133): 1 ... Synaptics Two-Finger Pressure (269): 282 Synaptics Two-Finger Width (270): 7 Synaptics Scrolling Distance (271): 112, 112 Synaptics Edge Scrolling (272): 0, 0, 0 Synaptics Two-Finger Scrolling (273): 1, 1 ...
The interesting bit being the scrolling distance; replace that with a negative value (with xinput set-int-prop), and you get inverted scrolling. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966237 Title: Scrolling directing is hard-coded/reversed from xinput Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: My computer is set to use natural scrolling like my phone and tablet. I use .Xmodmap and I can !

This is maddening. I can see that the apps that scroll the wrong way have very smooth scrolling indicative of unity and MT.
