Hi all, I haven't seen this one before. My touchpad mouse works normally, until I lift my finger and place it somewhere else. Normally, the pointer would stay where it is and only move when my finger moves. What happens now is my I touch the pad, the pointer moves to a point on the screen corresponding to where I touch the pad. Touch pad on left edge, pointer moves to left edge of screen, then reacts normally to finger moving again. The "stick mouse" works fine.
I get the same result without an xorg.conf, just letting xorg figure stuff out for itself. xorg-server-1.4.0.90 USE=dri hal input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_synaptics input_devices_vmmouse kdrive sdl video_cards_i810 video_cards_vesa video_cards_vga video_cards_vmware xorg x11-drivers/synaptics-0.14.6-r1 xorg.conf (irrelavant sections snipped) Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
