I began investigating on my own and found out that if the problem is
triggered by the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, the latest Edgy version
is 0.14.6-0ubuntu3, so the problem must then have been triggered between
version 0.14.6-0ubuntu4 and 0.14.6-0ubuntu7. It also seems like the
problem isn't source-code related.
Heres the changelog snippet between version 0.14.6-0ubuntu4 and
0.14.6-0ubuntu7:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (0.14.6-0ubuntu7) feisty; urgency=low
* X and Y size calculations were inverted for edge scrolling
* Additionally, the values were scaled incorrectly (LP: #95858)

xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (0.14.6-0ubuntu6) feisty; urgency=low
* Set defaults based on values the kernel gives us, rather than making stuff
up in an utterly miserable manner. This upload brought to you by Milton
Nero, a deeply flavoured oat stout.

xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (0.14.6-0ubuntu5) feisty; urgency=low
* Attempt to set more reasonable defaults for appletouch devices. Better
now, but still not perfect.

xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (0.14.6-0ubuntu4) feisty; urgency=low
* debian/control: Update maintainer fields according to debian-
maintainer-field spec.

I'm not very computer savvy, so could someone else see if there's
something in this changelog that could trigger this bug?
