Touchpad scroll not working in Firefox on Thinkpad

Touchpad scroll won't work in Firefox on ThinkpadTrackpoint/touchpad scrolling in Firefox 5 doesn’t work for you? There’s no need to configure a complicated Firefox JavaScript hack or change any Firefox scroll settings. Here’s what worked for me…

I’m running a Lenovo Thinkpad W500, Windows 7 64-bit and Firefox 5. To get Firefox scrolling working, I updated the UltraNav driver. Previously, I was running v13.2.4.12 (Jul-14-2009). Updating it to v15.3.6.0 (May-5-2011) and rebooting fixed the scrolling. Hopefully, it works for you, too.

The UltraNav driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit), Vista (32-bit, 64-bit) and XP (32-bit, 64-bit) can be found on the Lenovo Support site.

    No support for my good old X41 though. Too bad.

    @morinox: You might try the IBM or Lenovo Support Site for any updates specifically for X41: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/.
