touch pad scrolling not morking after update

more options

after updating to the most recent firefox, I cannot scroll in Firefox only, using the touchpad on my laptop. I have tested other programs to be sure I can use the touchpad to scroll and it does still work in other programs. Thanks

See this support thread for a download link to a HP Simple Pass update for Firefox 4. It works for both Egistec and Digital Personas versions of Simple Pass.

For Lenovo try this:
Type about:config into address bar, hit enter, Firefox would ask if you want to access the settings, say yes you know the risk.

When the list of configurations come up, type trackpoint into the filter area, you will see a ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled setting, change that from -1 to 1. Now you should be able to scroll using trackpoint and middle mouse button on the trackpad again.


For ALPS Trackpoint see this:
