Yuval,
Are you sure your BIOS is set to not autodisable built in
pointers when an external mouse is connected? I suggest you check your
BIOS. Otherwise, this is probably a kernel level issue and not xorg.
There is no (ok, I havn't seen any) option like that in the BIOS. Also, notice that the external mouse is a USB mouse. Can the BIOS know whats goes through the USB? Lately there has been quite a few bugfixes in the kernel input code, which is where this stuff is handled. Could you try to update to a recent kernel and see if that fixes the problem? The problem is fixed now. Not only the mouse pad is working, also the enable/disable button (on the laptop, near the pad) actually enables and disables the mouse pad, as it should. Running kernel linux-2.6.8.1 Thanks. Setting status to "RAWHIDE" kernel. |
