Synaptics touchpad driver addendum
also when these options are enabled, the mouse is completely dead, but a usb mouse will work after following this from pkg-message: the touchpad is not detected, and is still listed as just a mouse in the Xorg log. anyone getting something similar to this? machine is a HP DV2000, exact model is dv2225nr. default generic kernel from 7.0-Release. nvidia driver, ndis, are the only additions. ### o Add boot time tunable to /boot/loader.conf.

During the mouse device configuration of the installation process, all I had to do was indicate that the system has a serial mouse, and then activate it. I learned this the hard way during a previous installation when I indicated that I did not have a serial mouse, and the system failed to recognize the touchpad. Individual modules/functions of sysinstall can be run post-installation. As root, execute 'sysinstall', select Index, and then look for the module for mouse configuration. I hope this helps.

Re: need I install synaptics Touchpad driver for FreeBSD
This is a common issue with laptops.

Synaptics Touchpad driver
Does anyone know of the status of the Synaptics Touchpad driver for freebsd and what features it currently supports? Currently it's just using the regular ps/2 driver so I have very little control over customizing it. A found a few driver patches that are at least a year old and I heard that there was work on adding the driver to the 5.3 kernel, but I can't seem to find any more recent information. -- I sense much NT in you.
