Hi Jim, All the hotkeys including the trackpad disable button work perfectly.
There are a bunch of synaptics options that you might want to enable/disable (like enable mouse click with touch pad). I don't know about battery life yet, but I will definitely give it a try and see how long it lasts for. Anything that is 6+ hours is good enough for me. ________________________________ From: Jim <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, November 26, 2009 12:31:24 PM Subject: Re: [Acertimeline] Compile a Kernel Hugo, Wooohoooo! Good to hear. Does the trackpad disable button work? I don't think it does on my F12 beta install, but I'm scared to touch it.
