‘Touchpad’ Scrolling in Mozilla Firefox
Back in the day when all I used was a laptop, I recall getting extremely frustrated with the fact that my Synaptics Touchpad ’scroll area’ had no effect on Firefox.
So here’s the solution if your Touchpad wont scroll when using Mozilla Firefox;
Visit Synaptics’ Driver Downloads and check to see if you have the latest driver. If not, install the newest driver, and you should now be able to scroll in Firefox using your touchpad!
Still got problems?
There could be a problem in Firefox’s config! In the address bar, type in “about:config” and find the following two strings:
mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action and mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines. Set the action to zero (0), and set the sysnumlines to “true”.
Hope this helps!
