Pete Goodall, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-synaptics REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

On my Acer Aspire One 531h netbook I can enable edge-scrolling, but two-finger scrolling does not work at all. When two-finger scrolling is set in the Mouse Preferences dialog edge scrolling is disabled and attempting to scroll with two fingers just moves the mouse cursor. The gconf setting is getting set correctly, but the setting seems to have no effect. Or rather just doesn't work. Enable edge scrolling: ----------------------------- 1. System -> Preferences -> Mouse 2. Click on the "Touchpad" tab 3. Set "Scrolling" to "Edge scrolling" $ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/scroll_method 1 Scrolling works just fine in Firefox. Enable two-finger scrolling: ----------------------------------- 1. System -> Preferences -> Mouse 2. Click on the "Touchpad" tab 3. Set "Scrolling" to "Two-finger scrolling" $ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/scroll_method 2 Neither edge nor two-finger scrolling works in Firefox.
