the best part of my macbook is scrolling on the mousepad with two fingers. both vertical and horizontal scrolling works. i find other computers (and git gui, which is the only app on my mac that doesn't handle mouse pad scroll touches) virtually unusable because i have to do something special to scroll. scrolling is key to internet browsing and coding.
so....can it rock scrolling without multitouch? i doubt it (since it would be confused with moving the mouse somewhere)
- sorbus 17y agoX11 supports that type of scrolling on my Eee running Arch (I don't remember if it was there by default or if I had to turn it on, though), albeit only vertically. Note that the Eee's trackpad doesn't have multitouch; thus, I see no reason that this couldn't manage it. Of course, I don't use it much, because the trackpad is a bit too small for it to be useful, but still.
- rbanffy 17y agoI have multi-touch scroll on one of my notebooks under Ubuntu. The other's trackpad, unfortunately, doesn't support multi-touch. Imagine my surprise when finding out my old, cheap notebook knew how to work such magic...
