hey,
i recently upgraded to xorg 1.5 and configured my synaptics touchpad like this:
| Code: | cat /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-synaptics-touchpad.fdi
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
<match key="info.product" contains="Synaptics TouchPad">
<merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">on</merge>
<!-- Tapping -->
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">2</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string">3</merge>
<!-- Scrolling up/down -->
<merge key="input.x11_options.VertEdgeScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.HorizEdgeScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<!-- Corner clicks -->
<merge key="input.x11_options.RBCornerButton" type="string">2</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.RTCornerButton" type="string">3</merge>
</match>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>

What works: scrolling with two fingers.
What does NOT work: tapping and scrolling at the edges.
I can open gsynaptics without an error but when i change a thing there, nothing happens... can somebody help me? I'm lost...
thanks in advance,
sidlr

Hi,
could you be more specific, please? Did you have to add a core pointer line (in the ServerLayout section, I presume), or did you have to delete yours? What core pointer does/did it refer to, the synaptics touchpad or a mouse device?
I'm having the same problem and would be thankful for a hint.
TIA, Lars |

Well, actually i deleted the CorePointer line (which referred to the mouse/trackpoint) and i deleted the AlwaysCore line (which referred to the touchpad).
| Code: | Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Server0"
Screen "Screen0"
# InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
# InputDevice "Touchpad" "AlwaysCore"
# InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Thanks, now I've got it working, although I can't exactly tell how. I had no CorePointer Line in my xorg.conf, and synclient -l reported that I had correctly set TapButton1 etc., but tapping started to work only after restarting the hald and xdm (= kdm) services. (Or after something else I did in the meantime without remembering...)  |

yes, each time you edit xorg.conf you have to logout and restart xdm. and each time you edit an fdi you have to restart hald and xdm.
