If the scroll feature works, wouldn't that indicate that multitouch is enabled and functional? Am I misreading it?

If it is the case, I probably will pick up a magic mouse for my Ubuntu box.

-edit- The scroll function only requires one finger to move on the mouse; my mistake.

The scroll action works fine. It appears that Maverick includes changes to XOrg that allow multitouch (which was the reason none of those features worked for previous Ubuntu versions).

TL/DR: Zoom/Multitouch may work. Scrolling definitely does. The normal mouse functions have always worked.
