Hello,

Scrolling with a touchpad is now a bit jerky.

It's exactly the same bug than bug #1171156 introduced in Raring by an upstream's patch in order to fix bug #1046988 (which was tracked by upstream there: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690275 )

* Impact:
Up & down scrolling with a touchpad is now a bit jerky, seen best with gedit in large files though also seems to affect nautilus & in general.

* Testcase:
try scrolling in long documents in gedit using a touchpad, is scrolling "jerky"?
