Is there a way to disable accelerated trackpad scrolling?

It seems a new "feature" in 10.8 is that after 3-4 scrolling swipes in a given direction, the scrolling distance increases dramatically. I'm finding that in a long document, I'm happily scrolling along, and then, whoa, I'm about 5 pages down from where I just was. I can't figure out a way to disable this behavior--disabling inertial scrolling has no effect as one might suspect--has anyone else been bothered by this or figured out how to disable it. I'm finding it to be a major UI problem.

Not natively. There are some hacks to disable it though.
