[Bug 320632] Re: tap-to-click and edge-scrolling broken in Jaunty

[Luka Renko]

I think edge-scrolling not working is due to design change. This is from driver release notes:
http://lwn.net/Articles/317613/

"Note: Due to the ubiquity of multi-touch capable touchpads, the driver will
pick two-finger scrolling over edge scrolling if two-finger detection is
supported by the hardware. Edge-scrolling is then disabled.

Kernels up to excluding 2.6.29 announce multi-touch capabilities for all
synaptics touchpads even if the hardware does not support it. If you have a
such a touchpad, you will need to enable edge scrolling explicitly in the
configuration."

Note sure if Jaunty will stay with 2.6.28 or move to never kernel, but
this might be big issue for people upgrading...
