Hello everyone! Recently I got myself a new laptop computer, a Thinkpad T60. Everything's looking fine so far (well, as good as a modern ATI card with proprietary drivers gets...), but the Synaptics touchpad is causing a little trouble: I can't use tap-and-drag with gpm.
X.org is working great with the touchpad, using the "synaptics" driver. Tap-to-click is working with gpm, double- and triple-tap-to-click is working as well. Clicking with any of the buttons is working, button-click-and-drag is working. Choosing a different protocol in gpm's config doesn't make a difference. Having X running or not running doesn't make a difference. The only thing unsual that I can see is that tpconfig seems not to be able to read or change the "tapmode". Since tap-to-click is working, tapmode should be set to 1. # tpconfig -i Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Sensor type: unknown (0). Geometry: rectangular/landscape/up. Packets: absolute, 80 packets per second. Corner taps disabled; no tap gestures. Edge motion: none. Z threshold: 6 of 7. 2 button mode; corner tap is right button click. # tpconfig --tapmode=0 Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Corner taps disabled; no tap gestures. # tpconfig --tapmode=1 Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Corner taps disabled; no tap gestures. # tpconfig --tapmode=2 Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Corner taps disabled; no tap gestures. # tpconfig --tapmode=3 Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Corner taps disabled; no tap gestures. Anybody got a hint?
