Comment 20 for bug 129477

OK - this touchpad scroll-bars aren't working in the upstream kernel either. You can help me by periodically checking drivers/input/mouse/alps.c in the kernel source. The current upstream commit is 1e0c5b1275a0e59747349745da8778523a9dcd18. If it changes you can notify me directly.

git whatchanged drivers/input/mouse/alps.c

Since the changes to support the scroll bars in Feisty are A) unimplemented, and B) probably substantial, I'm going to change the bug status to Will Not Fix, and add a report against Gutsy. If upstream implements it in time, then I might be able to backport the changes to Gutsy.
