Comment 39 for bug 557072

Yeah, I agree we should create a separate bug for touchpad issues. Anyway with bios F.26 & maverick kernel I can middle-click and right-click respectively by tapping on the bottom-center edge or bottom-right corner. Multi-finger does not work though. "circular scrolling" means you can scroll by making circles with your finger on the touchpad, basically it's a great emulation of the mouse wheel. It can be enabled in System/Preferences/Pointing device (Scrolling tab).

NB: I have the psmouse loaded and the "synaptics" xorg driver as well (loaded automatically by xorg, nothing special in xorg.conf).
