Comment 19 for bug 462166

@Gursimran

You are running the wrong command. The correct command is

gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/scroll_method 2 --type int

Please try it again, reboot, and let me know the result. Also please
include the result of synclient -l

Other than that, this bug has a workaround that I am trying to help
you with. There is no need to edit the Affects package.
