[Bug 910677] Re: Horizontal Scroll on Touchpad Does Not Work By Default

 

Conner Lee, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [Gateway NV79C] Horizontal Scroll on Touchpad Does Not Work By Default

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a Gateway Laptop model  NV79C. The horizontal scroll has not
  worked by default since at least lucid lynx. It is the same on my acer
  netbook. This is definitely ubuntu-specific. I have tried many distros
  and none of them have this issue. Upon installation of 11.10 to get
  touchpad scrolling I had to do in terminal:

  rmmod psmouse

  modprobe psmouse proto=imps

  I had to do the same thing upgrading from 10.10 to natty.

  Again this is definitely a downstream issue as I have tried several other distros and in using them, I have never had this problem.
