Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
I did notice that options for touchpad tapping, vertical scrolling, and
horizontal scrolling are now included in the Mouse preferences.
This is definitely a great improvement over having to configure these options
in xorg.conf - hardly a trivial task for new Windows converts.
However, there are still a few options that can't be configured from here that
would be incredibly helpful to have here.
The particular options I am referring to are:
* Sensitivity options - this is one of the things Walt Mossberg complained
about in his Ubuntu review...
* 1/2/3 finger tap - allow these to be assigned to right, middle, or left click
as the user wishes
* two-finger scrolling - this is what Macs use by default, and the synaptics
driver allows for this.
* circular scrolling - also available through Synaptics driver
* corner taps - these are quite useful on my MacBook, as I errantly tap a lot
but still want an actual button for right-click
Also, it may be a good idea to use Mac-like defaults for appletouch
touchpads and Windows-like defaults on all other touchpads - that way,
everything behaves as the user expects it to (in most cases)...
