Are you using the correct eventX device node? Look at /proc/bus/input/devices to make sure. Verify from the console that you get data from the device. Type cat /dev/input/eventX | od -x access the touchpad and verify that some data is produced. Your XF86Config file should have a section that looks something like this: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "TouchPad" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event3" Option "Protocol" "event" Option "SHMConfig" "on" EndSection P.S. Auto-detection of the correct eventX device is under construction, so pretty soon it will be much easier to set things up. -- Peter Osterlund - petero2@telia.com http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
