[Bug 781143] [NEW] two finger scroll event should end when fingers are lifted from touchpad

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

For awhile now (including in Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04), I've experienced
an issue with scroll events initiated on my Touchpad. Steps to reproduce
are: 1) Open Firefox 2) Start a vertical scroll event on Touchpad (two-
finger scroll, in my case) 3) Remove fingers from Touchpad 4) Quickly
hit ctrl

The results are that Firefox will start zooming in or zooming out the
page. I also experience this if I start a scroll event and quickly
switch to a different workspace -- where my Terminal will start
scrolling up or down. I would expect that the scroll event would die
when I remove my fingers from the Touchpad, and probably when a meta key
gets hit, too.

I'm on a Thinkpad W510 on Ubuntu 11.04 using Unity. Here's all the info I can find on my Touchpad:
[ 10.808053] Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 7.2, id: 0x1c0b1, caps: 0xd047b3/0xb40000/0xa0000
[ 10.863551] input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7

I do have the synaptics-dkms package installed (version 1.1.0)
