Dear all,

After 3 weeks of gentoo I have only 1 ussue that I really cannot find the solution: my touchpad on hp envy.

Here the issues:

1) it's extremelly sensitive
2) right button behaves like the left button
3) double touching the pad don't produce the click

I'm using the default xorg-server, hal, I tried the tutorial here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Synaptics_Touchpad/Xorg_7.3 to set up fdi, I tried to use synclient but it seems that my options are "invisibles".

Finally I installed the kcm_touchpad, but it also doesn't change the behavior of the touchpad.

With ubuntu >= 10.04 the mouse works "perfectly" (not perfect as windows but ok), so please let me know if there is a tutorial somewhere or give me the steps to correct it!

Absolutely thank you very much for any kind of help.

Maybe this one, http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Synaptics
I remember configuring the touchpad sensitivity some time ago using this guide.

Thanks for your suggestion.

After some search I found that my touchpad is a clickpad so not yet supported by kernel 2.6 and xorg-server.
