I have just got a Samsung N150, and installed Natty. Everything worked OOB, except the touchpad scrolling. I looked in the touchpad control panel and the 'Enable vertical Scrolling' was checked. At this point I checked 'Enable horizontal scrolling', which resulted in horizontal scrolling working, but still no vertical scrolling.
I then searched on the forums and found this link:
http://superuser.com/questions/13656...-kubuntu-10-04
Where Patches and Richard Flynn (I'm not sure which) posted this solution:
Just found this, which works in Ubuntu. Open a terminal, and type in the following lines:
Code:sudo modprobe -r psmouseThis enables scrolling for your current session - test and make sure it works. If so, you can make it permanent by:Code:sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps
and adding the line:Code:sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options
Then close and reboot.Code:options psmouse proto=imps
I followed these instructions and now have vertical scrolling.But not horizontal scrolling.

The touchpad control is now a mouse control with no touchpad tab and no 'Enable horizontal scrolling'.
Does anyone know how to get both horizontal AND vertical scrolling at the same time?
