This, along with https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-shell/+bug/1876628 occurred because I was using xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, which I gather is no longer supported. Removing this solved the problem.

Enable 'natural scrolling' for the touchpad in mouse and keyboard settings. 2. Open 'Show Applications' -> 'All' 3. Scroll 4. Repeat 2 and 3 with natural scrolling unset Expectation: Scrolling 'up' (moving fingers up) moves application icons up with natural scrolling enabled and down with natural scrolling disabled. Actual outcome: Scrolling 'up' moves the app icons down (and vice versa) regardless of the natural scrolling setting for the touchpad. The scrolling behaves as expected when a normal mouse is used (i.e. natural scroll setting of mouse is obeyed). --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DisplayManager: gdm3 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-11-12 (903 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: gnome-shell 3.36.1-5ubuntu1 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-28.32-generic 5.4.30 RelatedPackageVersions: mutter-common 3.36.1-3ubuntu3 Tags: focal Uname: Linux 5.4.0-28-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to focal on 2020-04-30 (3 days ago) UserGroups: adm cdrom dialout dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo wireshark _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1876630/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
