Description Justin 2012-10-05 20:32:11 UTC
The new touchpad module do not have a way to control the scrolling behaviour. The touchpad should contain options to control enable/disable both vertical and horizontal scrolling
Comment 1 Justin 2013-01-16 19:18:16 UTC
Any updates here, please?

With the latest (3.6) touchpad redesign, there is no way to enable edge scrolling (both vertical and horizontal).

I wonder why no one is even responding here. Is anyone actually using touchpad scrolling? Or is it an issue only with my system? I thought touchpad scrolling will get more responses/concerns, but may be I am wrong.

The edge scrolling should be enabled by default in case of two finger scroll is unchecked. Maybe scrolling is disabled on your system from some reasons, try enable it by:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchpad scroll-method edge-scrolling
