Just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu.



I wonder if it's possible to enable two fingers and edge scrolling, both??? I think I had this on Xubuntu. BTW, I have Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS with Gnome 3 installed.

By now I must say I got used to these ubuntu limitations. I just use two finger scrolling. But when I followed the link shantanu provided, the long gone desire was back! And I successfully set it up. I describe how so it will be all at one place.



First create a sh with the needed command:



echo "synclient VertEdgeScroll=1 VertTwoFingerScroll=1" > /home/user/touchpad_settings_upd.sh


Set it as executable:



sudo chmod +x /home/user/touchpad_settings_upd.sh


Tell ubuntu to run this file every time GUI starts:



gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.input-devices hotplug-command "/home/user/touchpad_settings_upd.sh"


Works nice, so I think I'll stick with this from now...
