No edge scrolling option anymore for touchpad
Last modified: 2016-10-12 14:27:33 UTC
Created attachment 337515 [details] No "Two finger scroll" checkbox anymore. control-center 3.20.1-1.fc24.x86_64 (package from Fedora 24). libinput (on X11, not tested on Wayland) is used for the touchpad: > $ grep -e "Using input driver 'libinput'" /home/jehan/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log > […] > [ 733.495] (II) Using input driver 'libinput' for 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad' > […] I used to have a "Two finger scroll" checkbox in the "Mouse & Touchpad" settings. Unchecked meant old-style edge scrolling instead. But I don't have this anymore in the GUI (cf. screenshot) for the same material I had (Thinkpad X220). I can check that the "edge" scroll method is seen as available with xinput: > $ xinput list-props 10 > Device 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad': > […] > libinput Scroll Methods Available (286): 1, 1, 0 > libinput Scroll Method Enabled (287): 1, 0, 0 > […] And setting the edge method works fine and allows me to scroll with edge method on my touchpad: > $ xinput set-prop 10 287 1 0 0 But I think this should be available as an option in the GUI, as it used too. Has this been removed? Or is it a bug and it should appear?
