Linux w/ Mac Scrolling

Posted on August 28, 2007

Is it possible to make it so that I laptop running synaptic drivers can make it so that you can scroll pages with two fingers on the pad?

Update: Thanks to okke in the comments, all you have to do is add a line to your xorg.conf file to enable 2 finger scrolling. There's a wiki entry on the Gentoo Wiki about doing so.

  1. I was looking for the same thing. Apparently,

    check out http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Synaptics_Touchpad and use the option “VertTwoFingerScroll”. Good luck.

  2. Great thanks, I’ll have to look into this.
