Default Synaptics Touchpad scrolling under OE6

I have Synaptics Touchpad v5.9 (7.12.3.0) installed on this Gateway
laptop. And when I open a post in its own window, the touchpad scroll
works fine. Although my five Asus EeePC which use a newer version
Synaptics Driver v6.3 will not scroll the window from the touchpad.
Also just tried the newest version and that one doesn't work either.
If I use a mouse, that scroll anyway works. So has anybody else seen
this behavior from Synaptics Drivers and OE6?


Well after not having the touchpad scroll feature not working for OE6
messages for over a year on my 5 netbooks. I finally got out my Gateway
Recovery disc out and found the older Synaptics Touchpad v5.9 (7.12.3.0)
driver deep in layers of folders. Installed it on one of my netbooks and
now OE6 scrolls with the touchpad. Now to install it on 4 more netbooks.
Sad they throw a newer driver with those netbooks that doesn't even
work, eh? Thank goodness for older drivers. vbg
