Which toolkit and OS are you using? It's in the variable
system-configuration-options.
C-h v system-configuration-options
If it is a recent linux distro you are likely using gtk3. My advice
is to try the lucid toolkit. You should have a package emacs-lucid or
emacs24-lucid in your distro.
In lucid by default scrollbars are on the left. Just use
(menu-bar-right-scroll-bar) if you want them on the right.
Otherwise, with GTK you can try luck customizing the GTK theme.
