[Bug 1338973] Re: scrolling unusable, touchpad too sensitive
Currently libinput is the library used for mouse input and the desktop environments only provide a GUI for changing its settings. The problem is that libinput currently does not support the changing of scroll speed.

I just updated my macbook air (2013) from Ubuntu 16.04 to 17.10, and the touchpad scrolling is way too sensitive.

[Bug 1338973] Re: scrolling unusable, touchpad too sensitive
This ridiculous. The Touchpad (17.10 but same for 17.04. 16.x) is waayyy to sensitive. So you do a search for help. What do you find? Lots and lots of links to and excuses. Windows and Mac had this sorted for decades. How is it that the Trackpad on Linux is so unusable? Starts selecting and clicking when I did not tap, start selecting text etc etc. Go here, do this setting, install this tweak, that config - oh yeah right - most, no, all of the programs are not available, have been dropped (gpointing-device-settings, Synaptiks etc etc). Oh... and Wayland libinput you cannot get the configs for it. I'm getting to the point of just uninstalling and going back to another Operating System. Every bloody time you install something it is dependency hell, unconfigurable things and crashing of apps. Maybe it is time to stand still for a while and just fix what is there instead of going for yet another new interface, yet another new glitzy theme and feature when the basics don't work properly. And looking at the lots and lots of bugs logged, this is not a new issue. This is coming on decades now that a basic feature like a usable trackpad is still not working.

The only way to change sensitivity I've found (so I don't know if it's the only one at all (but then maybe there is a problem in design if it's hard to find the proper option)) is to manipulate Scrolling Distance in Scrolling tab, but it could be only worse in my case. Currently I've vertical and horizontal distances at max values (which is 10.0mm). When I set a smaller distance then scrolling becomes even more sensitive. It's hard to scroll web page, because even slight movement scrolls too much of visible area. I think is should be possible to set bigger scrolling Distance. If I'm wrong, then sorry for misunderstanding. I've installed kcm- touchpad 0.9, and then upgraded to 0.99 but the problem is still there. Because I really like the new design I don't want to go back to my previous workarounds for setting touchpad. I've got Lenovo G780 notebook.
