User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:70.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/70.0
Steps to reproduce:
Run GalliumOS 3.0 on a laptop with touchscreen support (for specifics, I'm working on an HP chromebook that no longer runs ChromeOS)
Open Firefox
Attempt to use touch controls
Actual results:
Firefox treats the finger input as a touch or drag
Expected results:
Firefox should treat the input as a scroll

Does setting the environment variable MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1 help?
I forgot the account that I submitted this ticket from has an email that no longer exists attached to it. I'm not sure how to edit environment variables, where would I do that? Editing the profile under ~/.mozilla does nothing.

The priority flag is not set for this bug.

In a terminal, with Firefox not already running, try running:
MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1 firefox

This has fixed it, I would suggest adding an option to forcibly enable touch screen support, but idk how that works.

Thanks, that makes this a duplicate of bug 1207700, which tracks enabling XInput2 by default.

We could add a flag to about:config easily enough; I filed bug 1601850 for this.
