From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050513 Fedora/1.7.8-2 Description of problem: When installing an everything install, anaconda does not setup xorg.conf to load correct entries for synaptics to function. If you rename the file and boot into runlevel 3, running system-config-display sets up the entries correctly. Included after bug submission will be the initial install and the working xorg.conf file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda FC4T3 version How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC4T3 2. Login to X 3. Notice scroll does not work, tap works Actual Results: Nothing would scroll when using the scroll bad. Looking at the xorg.conf file showed no synaptics entries. running system-config-display from a root terminal corrected the problem when the other xorg.conf was renamed. Expected Results: The settings for the synaptics touchpad scroll should have worked post install. Additional info: system-config-display and the synaptics driver work when drawing off of previous dscussions. It does not work out of the box though.

Please retry with an install FC4 final I believe that this should be fixed there.
I have not ran into this problem recently with FC4 and installing from Development does the right thing with modular X. I am closing the bug.
