Have been trying to get my Synaptics touchpad 'double tap' function working
under SuSE 9.1 but no luck so far (a PS/2 mouse works fine and other buttons
near touchpad seem OK too).
Found a couple of tips Googling:
1. Add line 'psmouse.proto=imps' in the grub.conf file.
tried this but did not work...even after a reboot (if I needed to I don't
rightly know). Why is this line supposed to be added to grub.conf as opposed
to something like /etc/x11/XF86Config...'input devices'
2. The only other hint was a bit technical (creating pipes and gpm data) for
me..but hoping some bright spark might be able to translate the info given
under 'Touchpad' at:

Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Ps. Thanks all who contributed to solving the repeating keys in SuSE....this
problem seems to have disappeared for me too.....ah the benefits of lurking
quietly ;-)
Hi Ralph,
Here's the section from my Tosh XF... but double tap seems to = 2 x 1 tap!
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Buttons" "3"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "off"
Option "HWCursor" "off"
EndSection
I have an alternate section that I stole from somewhere... but dunno what it
does!
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse2"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "LeftEdge" "1900"
Option "RightEdge" "5400"
Option "TopEdge" "1900"
Option "BottomEdge" "4000"
Option "FingerLow" "25"
Option "FingerHigh" "30"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.02"
Option "MaxSpeed" "0.18"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
# Option "Repeater" "/dev/ps2mouse"
EndSection
(if you change the device to the correct one, it *might* work!)
