Can you clarify what you mean about not detecting? Do you mean not detected as clickpad? Your extended capabilities 0x0c show bit 0x100000 set which current kernel uses as part of clickpad detection. Also, if Yan's patch is of use to you, then that means kernel is only reporting BTN_LEFT which also indicates its detected as clickpad by kernel. > > I've been looking forward to Takashi's fixes, but barely none are in > the kernel yet.

Make sure palm detection is off or at least palm width value is higher than value of EmulateTwoFingerMinW as they compete with each other. EmulateTwoFingerMinW is the extremely important property for the types of jumps your describing here. If you can't get that working then jumps will occur. Can you confirm which version of xf86-input-synaptics your testing with? It must be at least 1.3.0 or newer for EmulateTwoFingerMinW to be be useful for these type jumps. > >> I can also confirm that setting EmulateTwoFingerMinW=5 > > The jump while clicking still occures as ever. With any value. :( If you continue to have issues, I would appreciate if you can use "evtest" tool and record events to log file while your performing sequences that cause jumps and send logs directly to me. From those I can verify if its a configuration issue of xf86-input-synaptics or something that just hasn't been accounted for yet in xf86-input-synaptics.
