[Bug 1410540] [NEW] Touchpad scrolling in Ubuntu Software Centre is broken

 

Public bug reported:

Summary:

Scrolling in Ubuntu Software Centre using the touchpad is broken -
scrolling down (for example) causes the screen to judder and make no
downward progress.


Steps to reproduce:

1) Enable two-finger scrolling (n.b. touchpad configuration is currently
handled by "Pointing devices" - replacement for gsynaptics in the
Software Centre).

2) Open Ubuntu Software Centre.

3) Attempt to two-finger scroll down the page - the screen simply
judders (almost as if two source of scroll events are fighting to scroll
in either direction).
