Bug Description

User experiences this in firefox.

My Acer Aspire 3680 trackpad is extremely sensitive when I use Firefox 3.0. Just running it down where it should go a couple lines will send it on a fast scroll down (like 10x the amount desired).

Attached are my system dependencies. Not sure why this wasn't done automatically. It was on another but I reported.

definitly nothing firefox can do. most likely user doesnt use simliar sensitive mouse gestures in other apps and thus doesnt notice. we need the right package for this.
