Got multitouch?  Sure, so now you all will happily convert to
two-finger everywhere, and we can just turn off your touchpad's
edge-scrolling, right?  No?  OK, then:

for id in $(xinput list|perl -ne 'if(m{TouchPad.*id=([0-9]+)}){print "$1\n"}')
do
    xinput set-prop $id "Synaptics Edge Scrolling" 1 1 0
done
