My mousepad on my Samsung laptop won't scroll in Firefox.

All of a sudden my two-finger scrolling stopped working in Firefox. The scrolling works perfectly fine in any other program I have but Firefox. How do I fix this? Please keep in mind that I'm not very tech-savvy so breaking down directions would be very helpful for me to be able to understand what to do. Thanks.

Hey fgrroxsocks!

This link should help you with your problem :) http://mzl.la/MD75AT


Thanks,

I've reset firefox a few times and the rest of those links had nothing to do with mouse/ touchpad issues but thanks.

Is that with using a gesture or with moving the scroll bar on web pages?

  • about:config page: browser.gesture.*

That's with the gesture. Two-fingers on my touchpad.

Does it help if you modify or create this Integer pref on the about:config page?

  • ui.elantech_gesture_hacks.enabled = 0

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

No. Changing the integer didn't help. Should I restart firefox/ my laptop?
