Hi all,
I have a Dell D600 running under kernel 2.4.23 and XFree86 4.3.0
The screen resolution is 1400x1050.
Great machine, but there is one thing irritating me alot:
To move the pointer across one of the screen diagonals using the
touchpad I have to slide a finger across the pad some 3.5 times.
Is there a way to make the touchpad more responsive?
Are you using a touchpad driver or just a generic mouse driver? If the
former, check the configuration options for the driver. For the latter,
try using 'xset m ...' to change the mouse acceleration.
By the way, I have search the web extensively the last few days,
and have problems figuring out whether the Pentium-M processor
is a CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII or a CONFIG_MPENTIUM4. My impression is
that most people say PENTIUM4, but based on the core content of
my web-search I have compiled it as a PENTIUMIII.
I'm not sure, but I think the Pentium-M is based on the PIII design, while
the Pentium4-M is obviously a P4. Unless someone more knowledgeable about
both the differences between P-M and P4 and the specifics of how that
affects whatever you care compiling gives you better advice, I suggest
going the safe route and assuming PIII.
