Hail and well met!

I recently messed up my ubuntu OS (installed by System76 when purchased) and was forced to reinstall ubuntu. I chose the very latest 19.10 and almost everything is just great.
Previously, my trackpad would allow me to scroll with inertia, by that I mean I could scroll down a page in a quick light two-finger push and the page would continue scrolling for a short bit after my fingers left the pad. It was as if it were a physical wheel that would continue spinning after the force was removed.

My new 19.10 installation does not do this, the split-second that my fingers come off the pad the scroll stops instantly. I do have the System76 drivers installed.
Just FYI- For some reason my 'Settings' tool does not have a 'Devices' option, I don't know why...

Anyone have an idea how this might be resolved?
