    Using either Ubuntu 10.10 or Fedora 14, I can enable to finger scrolling on my old HP 6510b. I do not have this setting on Vista. I updated my Synaptics driver and still no too finger scroll feature. Am amazed.

    Thanks. Any idea where I can find it?

    I now hooked up my laptop to my LCD TV... with VIsta I could not get the monitor to display in either 1080p or 720p. VIsta works with 1152 x 864 or 1280x1024. Typing this on Ubuntu 10.10 an my LCD at 1366 x 768. These small things really makes me a believer.
