Running script after X starts
I disable the touchpad on my Thinkpad T43 by giving the command sudo synclient TouchpadOff=1 I've tried putting /usr/bin/synclient TouchpadOff=1 in /etc/rc.d/rc.local but this doesn't seem to work, I assume because it is run before X starts. I've also tried adding various lines in my SynapticsTouchPad stanza in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , but none of these have had the desired effect. How can one add a script to be run after X starts? Or is there some other way of turning off my touchpad, and using the pointer instead? I'm running Fedora-11 + KDE. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
