I only adjusted the zAccept for Synaptics, but didn't adjust both (Alps + Synaptics)... I will try both, and let everyone know what happens. :)

In the mean time, FFScroll without the scroll is a lot better than the stock PS2 kext... so it feels, but maybe it's just me...lol

I finally got around to trying it last night. It works and gives you access to the trackpad preferences too. I had scrolling with one finger with a harder press and non-scrolling with a softer touch. I doubt this setup is for everyone. I also had to fiddle with the speed settings in the pref file to get it set the way I like it. Can't quite get tapping to work though.

Does this help improve the touch pad vertical/horizontal scroll problem? Currently the verticle scroll is faster then the horizontal.

I came across this post describing the use of FFScroll with another software to make it work better.

I tried it on my S10. I can confirm that it worked perfectly as described. Scrolling works much better now for me.
