Bug Description

When I use 2 finger scrolling/circular scrolling the scrolling continues after I get my finger of the pad.
When I check with synclient -m 1 I see the x coordinate and y coordinate reset to some fixed values. Also the "z" and "f" value change randomly.
The behaviour in an application is that it's scrolls random in the y-direction or continues scrolling

Hi z4nshin,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISOs are available from cdimage.ubuntu.com)

If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
Thanks in advance.

The output of lspci -vvnn would also be worth having.

Hello Bryce,

This bug still goes, even for the development distro. I'm using intripid at the moment.
