Sebastien: I've tested the if my macbook pro pad registers natural scrolling and it does not. To clarify, when my fingers glide over the pad towards me, the on-screen document scrolls to the bottom of the page rather than to the top (as it should in natural/reverse scrolling).
So unless setting 5 before 4 in .Xmodmap is screwing up a gtk's already implemented, it's still a problem on pads, nor is it working with mice. As for gnome picking up this feature because it's part of gtk, well, I've looked at Unity's mouse preference pane and there's nothing called smooth scrolling there, much like the case with nautilus' preference pane, too. As for that term, "smooth scrolling" is confusing and reading about it on the net shows that some talk about literally "smooth" transitions from top to bottom (& vice versa) in any document, as opposed to jerky movement (jumping 2 or 3 lines with each movement of the wheel of the mouse). Again, to be clear, I believe both Ronald and I are not referring to this feature. We're only concerned with, as is this bug, the cause and effect of directionality of movement with any and all pointer apparatus. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/951123 Title: nautilus not natural scrolling Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I came to the conclusion after updates of ubuntu 12.04 on march the 9th, nautilus did not handle natural scrolling anymore, while in Chrome or Firefox or even any other application it still does. I enabled this feature in gnome-tweak and all works fine, except in nautilus.
