Just setting up a new Framework 16 and for whatever reason, the gnome options for inverting scroll direction on the touchpad aren’t working. I’m hoping someone else has seen this and has an easy fix? It seems to only use the “natural” scroll direction that Apple popularized, and I would much rather go back to the old school behavior.

I was able to fix this with dconf, so this is likely more of an ubuntu problem:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad natural-scroll true
