I am using touch pad mouse with Synaptics Gesture Suite Version: 10.2 Synaptics TouchPad Driver Version 15.3.22 25Aug11 . And I have no problem on using two fingers scroll gesture with any other applications or browsers but firefox. Only Firefox browser won't let me use two finger scroll gesture. Does Firefox browser not support synaptics driver? or Is there any settings for it? Please! Let me use my two fingers to scroll up and down in Firefox browser.........

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4+ versions.

You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related Preferences on the about:config page.

-> Type about:config in the Location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key. When you see a warning, click I'll be careful, I promise! button.

  • Preferences that have been modified are shown as bold (user set).
  • Preferences can be Reset to the default values or changed via the right-click context menu.
  1. In the Filter bar, type browser.gesture.pinch.in
  2. In the Filter bar, type browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift
    • right-click the preference browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift and click Modify
    • type cmd_fullZoomReset and click OK
  3. In the Filter bar, type browser.gesture.pinch.out
    • right-click the preference browser.gesture.pinch.out and click Modify
    • type cmd_fullZoomEnlarge and click OK
  4. In the Filter bar, type browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift
    • right-click the preference browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift and click Modify
    • type cmd_fullZoomReset and click OK
  5. In the Filter bar, type browser.gesture.pinch.latched
    • right-click the preference browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> click Toggle to change its value to False and click OK

-> Close about:config tab and Restart Firefox

Check and tell if its working.
