[Bug 1218166] Re: [Dell XPS 13] Horizontal/Vertical scrolling feature on touchpad does not work.

 

Re-installed 12.04.2 and found that:

* On a fresh installed 12.04.2 with kernel 3.5.0-23, edge scroll works.
* After a system upgrade, kernel bumped to 3.5.0-40, and edge scroll stops working.
* Use the same file system above and boot with 3.5.0-23, edge scroll works again.

Something between 3.5.0-23 and 3.5.0-40 breaks the edge scroll support.

Title:
  [Dell XPS 13] Horizontal/Vertical scrolling feature on touchpad does
  not work.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  CID: 201209-11840 Dell XPS 13

  Both of the edge scrolling feature (horizontal and vertical) does not
  work on this system.

  There is no E7 value in dmesg, and the only EC value is:
  ubuntu@201209-11840:~$ cat /var/log/dmesg| grep EC
