Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[René]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7

Indicated version and some versions before, I don't remember when, introduced this bug that causes touch-pad scrolling to be inversed, while IE scrolling is correct. With inversed I mean, that the movement of the scroll bar is contrary to the finger movement on the touch-pad scroll area. I consider this a bug of FF since it works fine in other applications.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Take a laptop with Synaptics mouse pad
Have Synaptics driver 8.1.2.0 installed
Open FF on a website that makes the scroll bar appear. 
Move your finger over the scroll arey of the mouse pad in upward direction.


Actual Results:  
Now you will see the scrollbar moving down (in the contrary direction). 

Expected Results:  
It should move up (when it can) like in all other applications
