Confirmed still a problem in natty. I would like the "standard" OS X
dragging method to work too. That is hold down the click pad with one
(stationary) finger, and drag an icon/window with a second finger. I
expect it will be classified as Wishlist though.

Title:
  Touchpad doesn't allow continuous drag

Status in Mactel Support:
  New
Status in uTouch:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu 10.10 on a Mac Book Pro 7,1, I installed
  xserver-xorg-input-synaptics from ppa:mactel-support.

  This driver doesn't allow continuous dragging. Continuous dragging is
  when you hold down the mouse button and with the other finger continue
  to drag. This doesn't work in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics from the
  PPA (1.2.2-2ubuntu5-mactel1) resulting in limiting the amount of
  dragging a user can do. Users will need to drag with 1 finger with
  more acceleration to get a similar result.

  In comparison, OS X does this properly.
