Hi poma,

Thanks for pointing it out.

I've realized that to make the single-finger vertical scrolling
working (at least in XFCE) I have to enable it on the system settings,
where, after selecting the device "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" and the
"Touchpad" section, you can choose between either 'edge scrolling'
(i.e., the single-finger scrolling) or the 'two-finger scrolling'.
If I select 'edge-scrolling', the single-finger scrolling works like a charm.

Cheers
