I had configured the driver via hal, and if I login to KDE4, every feature I want was enabled. But for Gnome, I had to run this command every time after started up or resumed from sleep:
/usr/bin/synclient TapButton1=1 HorizEdgeScroll=1 It seemd something in gnome disabled those options. Is there anything I can do to workaround or at least to monitor and find out the one in gnome who disabled the options?
