Two finger scroll doesn't work on VMware guest Ubuntu 14.04

[Pawel Duda]

I have followed some tips from:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/484354/synaptics-touchpad-scroll-not-working

I tried disabling the two finger scroll option in host (Windows 8.1 - 64bit) but to no avail.

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 on VMware 9.02.

I expected two finger vertical scroll to work.
I doesn't now.

This package has been removed from the Ubuntu development release, so I am closing all remaining open bug reports.

Sorry that we couldn't fix your problem properly, but gpointing-device-settings is dead upstream, buggy and completely unmaintained.

For more information, see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=870961

Thank you for your understanding and please continue to report any bugs you may find.
