Do you use the XOrg with the synaptics trackpad driver?
Yes, I do.
This driver has a known problem. It opens the event device for the trackpad exclusively and block it for any other application. In this case pbbuttonsd can't open the event device for the trackpad and therefore won't get events from it.
I see. It makes me wonder what the reasoning for doing that is.
There is a patch for the synaptics driver out to solve this, but I don't have it at hand. Please file a bugreport to Xorg and the package xserver-xorg-input-synaptics too. Maybe they will fix the problem one day and use a cooperative way to read trackpad events.
I will do that. Thanks for your help. Peace, Brendon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
