Synaptics touchpad does not register taps
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:51 EST
X seems to run fine except that the touchpad while registering movements does not seem to register taps. This is observed on my Compaq Evo N800w laptop using out-of-the-box FC3 test3, using the workstation default install. Apart from this flaw, which can be worked around by using the buttons instead of doing taps, test3 looks pretty good. Well done everyone. thanks, Tom.
Oh, yes, just to give more detail, here's the entry from dmesg when it finds the touchpad [with a bit of context]: drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.0:USB HID core driver mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice i8042.c: Detected active multiplexing controller, rev 1.1. serio: i8042 AUX0 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 serio: i8042 AUX1 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 serio: i8042 AUX2 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 serio: i8042 AUX3 port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1 Firmware: 5.9 Sensor: 51 new absolute packet format Touchpad has extended capability bits -> multifinger detection -> palm detection -> pass-through port input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad on isa0060/serio4 serio: Synaptics pass-through port at isa0060/serio4/input0 input: PS/2 Logitech Mouse on synaptics-pt/serio0 serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0 md: md driver 0.90.0 MAX_MD_DEVS=256, MD_SB_DISKS=27
