In Windows 7 (which was included on my laptop), I could use the right side of the touchpad to scroll vertically, and the bottom edge to scroll horizontally. In Ubuntu, this doesn't work and I see no setting to enable it. Is it even supported? I miss this feature. I just removed Windows and installed Ubuntu 12.04 beta.

Search for "Mouse and Touchpad" in the menu, there you will find touchpad settings there, and you can set horizontal as well as vertical scrolling.

On Ubuntu 14.04 LTS , search for "Pointing Devices " in ubuntu software centre , install it and scrolling works perfectly for ALPS touchpads !!
