Bug Description
With the new kernel "3.2.0-30-generic #48" in Ubuntu precise, the vertical scroll area of my synaptics has moved from the right border of the touchpad quite a bit to the left. In effect, the rightmost area of the touchpad moves the mouse cursor instead of triggering vertical scroll. If I then move my finger a bit to the left, vertical scroll starts working.
This is a regression from 3.2.0-29-generic where this works just fine.

I'm facing exactly the same issue with the synaptic touchpad with my A6J Asus laptop after upgrading the kernel. The scroll bar has moved to the left direction as well. It worked properly with the previous 3.2.0-29 kernel.
