Thank you very much, I always wondered why this was not supported in FreeBSD. I also wonder if it will be tunable with the appropriate GNOME/KDE (or just the synclient tool) settings to disable this two-finger scroll at runtime. > > Please test it and report back your experience.

We also added sound support by default, why not the touchpad ? :-). David.
