Scrolling on the far right of the touchpad should be the default 
function as well some other functions.

In your file /etc/X11/xorg.conf, add the line Option "SHMConfig" "on" 
and reboot.  Now install a tool called gsynaptics.  Either open synaptic 
or do it from command-line, sudo apt-get gsynaptics.  This allows for a 
small gui to configure some options.

Then, go to thinkwiki.org and search there on touchpad for many other 
configurable features.
