Both of these capabilities are switched off per default. Wouldn't just switching them on in the Gnome's Control Panel help? Thank you for helping to make Fedora awesome! I added /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi from gentoo and now it works. Maybe this fdi is missing in fedora? (In reply to comment #2) > I added /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi from gentoo and now it works. > Maybe this fdi is missing in fedora? Could you attach it to this bug, please?

synaptic fdi file
i just noticed something, the behaviour is erratic, i just reboot and i lost again the touchpad (even the tab in mouse properties) after several reboots it back :/ Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach * your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available), and * X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance. Created attachment 475825 [details]
xorg log
Some news. I selected iBus in Input Method Selector (No input method was selected by default) and now it seems to works in every reboot. It0s correct to select iBus? Any news on this? i lost again the touchpad after last update, but i can see it in: root@mido ~ # lshal | grep -i touch info.product = 'Integrated Touchpad [Synaptics]' (string) usb_device.product = 'Integrated Touchpad [Synaptics]' (string) but i dont have any touchpad tab in mouse properties. Tap works but not scrolling. I tested the same laptop model in ubuntu and touchpad works correctly. Maybe some udev rule is getting weird? i need to restar several times (>5) to get the touchpad recognised. It's really erratic behaviour. TIA If the touchpad is detected as generic mouse, this means it's lacking kernel-level support. This bug was filed for F14 which has since been EOL'd. Please update to F15 or F16 and chances are that the touchpad works now with a newer kernel. If it doesn't, please reopen this bug (and update to the respective fedora version) but meanwhile I'll close this as WONTFIX for F14. |
