Yes, that's a possibility too. One child I test with insists on an external mouse, even if I'm offering them an XO-1.5 - which has an entirely different touchpad model that has never shown the symptom. > However, I do not think that "is not a big issue" if newer builds > indeed make it worse. I don't see enough data that newer builds make it worse, but data would be useful. I'd like this to be evidence based. How would you capture the data reliably? > On that matter, I was thinking that the kbdshim debug option could > provide touchpad use data and compare it to jumping events. Ah, you're beyond my knowledge at this point. > Anyway to quantify touchpad use and behaivor in F9 builds? I don't know of any way that involves only the laptop or software. Quantifying use and behaviour would require a video camera on both the touchpad and the screen. Or accurate reporting from both people who experience a problem and those who do not. Self selected reporting from community enthusiasts isn't as reliable. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
