Disabling Forward and Back Scrolling in Firefox Under Fedora on Synaptics Touchpad

Ever wondered why Firefox "randomly" decides to navigate Forward and Back when you're using it on your laptop under Fedora Linux?

It's related to the fact that Firefox on Linux defaults to Forward/Back rather than Horizontal scroll, and when you move your finger close to the bottom edge of your Synaptics Touchpad it's sending a Horizontal Scroll message.

I did find out how to disable this though, from a post on the Ubuntu Forums, simply enter about:config in the address bar and set the following settings in Firefox:

  1. mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action = 0
  2. mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines = true

Voila, it works for me, hopefully for you to, let me know if you're still having problems.
