long time no see, but I am still subscribed and as I had the very same
experience today, here's what I noticed:

First I thought my evdev driven usb mouse section had stolen my
touchpad. But there were no hints to that in Xorg.0.log and removing
mouse0 from xorg.conf didnt change anything.

Then I used

synclient -l

to see the settings of synaptics.

There I saw the following line:

VertTwoFingerScroll     = 1

So I tried scrolling the Mac way, and it worked. Just put 2 fingers on
the pad and slide both down.

To also reenable the edge scrolling, I just had to use

synclient VertEdgeScroll=1

and now it is working again.


So if that's your problem, maybe my experiences can be helpful.


cu,

Dieter
