Thinkpad Scrolling fixed for Safari and IntelliJ.
Got a brand new Thinkpad T61 today from my company. It is a bit under powered with only 1 GB of RAM, but the great keybooard more than makes up for it.
However there is one peculiar problem with it’s touchpad software (called ultranav, somewhat ironically). For certain apps Virtual Scrolling, or Touch Pad edge scrolling, similar to middle button mouse scrolling as in a 3 button mouse, does not work.
Safari on Windows and IntelliJ IDE suffers due to this problem.
Well there is a fix after all. Just add the following lines to your
C:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\TP4table.dat file
; IDEA support
*,*,idea.exe,*,*,*,WheelStd,1,9
; Safari support
*,*,safari.exe,*,*,*,WheelStd,1,9
You get the idea don’t you? Now if Netbeans or Eclipse does not get ultranav scrolling support, you know what to do isn’t it?
is it need restart after that changes?

Anver,
There must be a file called TP4table.dat somewhere in your system.
Here try out this
