Bug#615582: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics: vertical scrolling and tapping behave differently with kernel 2.6.32 vs 2.6.37

FWIW, you can see (parts of) the package's history at:
  http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/linux-2.6.html

Alright. I'd suggest your reporting your bug upstream directly, I
guess Peter should be able to tell you what's supposed to happen,
what's buggy, and how to deal with it:
  http://bugs.freedesktop.org/ (product xorg, component Input/synaptics)

(Might be kernel changes, or the driver needing tweaking/configuration
to deal with those.)

Please let us know the bug number afterwards (and/or add me to Cc when
filing the bug).

Thanks already!

KiBi.
