Description Jesse Keating 2008-08-01 12:40:15 UTC 
gsynaptics-0.9.14-1.fc9 from updates-testing makes my touch pad not work at all.
 As soon as gsynaptics runs to set my settings (disable tap, circle scroll) the
touchpad stops responding and I can't move the mouse.  No messages in X log or
/var/log/messages that I could see.

For me it crashes :(, will look at it later this weekend.
