You should also have a section in the xorg.conf file that looks like this:
Section "ServerLayout"
# Uncomment if you have a wacom tablet
# InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
# InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
# InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen "Default Screen" 0 0
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
InputDevice "Synaptics Touchpad" #the important line is obviously this
one, add it to yours ServerLayout section if it's missing.
EndSection
Try issuing this command to see if the synaptics xorg module is loaded:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep synaptics
(II) LoadModule: "synaptics"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so
(II) Module synaptics: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
If it's loaded, try to install the gsynaptics package which provides an
utility to configure the touchpad under system->preferences. Then try to
enable the scrolling
Did you installed Hardy or you upgraded it from gutsy?
