The previously posted Juan workaround also worked for me too on the Dell XPS 15 running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Thank you all. :-)
Patch system first, then do the following fixes posted by Juan and others (see previous posts). sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-libinput sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-input-synaptics vim /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-libinput.conf InputClass #Inside the sections for pointer and touchpad Option "NaturalScrolling" "true" #note I used this Option "AccelSpeed" "-0.5" #note I tried this - made mouse too slow - commented it.
