So I've been delving into the touchpad thing a bit more now that I have a
few days off. This is the output of libinput-list-devices:

I'm assuming that since all the necessary features I'm looking for are
listed as "N/A" then it means something is wrong? (Also because when I got
to "Test Your Settings" the option for Two Finger Scrolling is set to OFF
but there's STILL no single-finger scroll!...any help at all would be
greatly appreciated!
Two finger scroll off means two finger scroll doesn't happen. It
doesn't mean you get single finger scroll. I've never heard of single
finger scroll unless you click and hold the "shuttle" UI element
that's on the right side of a window that indicates what section of a
document you're viewing.
Dunno about the desktop the OP is using, but on Mate desktop  you have
an option of "edge scrolling" which is similar to grabbing the vertical
scrollbar with your rodent/mouse. that is single-finger-scrolling even
though that isn't its actual name.

I don't have a GNOME or KDE desktop handy to verify that they support
the same thing, but I believe I've seen it in Gnome previously.

I KNOW its there! I've used it before in F23,...hmm....I guess I'll have to muck around
with the gsettings or some other Gnome-related file, but I WILL figure this out! Only
because I love Fedora over all the other distros!....LoL!


This thread sounds like a rehash of a similar thread from back in August that you were
involved in.

My understanding is previous versions of Fedora used the synaptic driver for the touch
pad.  Now it is "xinput".  I suggested back then that you look into "xinput" and
"libinput".  I also pointed you to

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/W32B3CERZ75ISG3KVOYNBWVATFBYTMQL/

Did this turn out to be unhelpful?




Alas! I had tried those options, (including the script, but to no avail!) Its ok though, I've decided to retire this laptop. So It's not that big a deal. This machine is headed to CEntOS / Scientific Linux, as for Fedora, I'll continue to run it on my desktop (which has a mouse so the touchpad issue is moot!) Thanks for all the help and suggestions though, just one more reason why I'm a "Fedoran" for life!...

Cheers!
