Well, I'd expect upstream did that since 0.14.4 has been released quite a while ago (Nov. 05) and gsynaptics' synshm.h is only compatible only with 0.14.0 and 0.14.1. So maybe he is interested in such a change. AFAICT upstream gsynaptics-0.9.5 is not compatible with ubuntu's synaptics driver neither. > I hope I did a useful job. > > gsynaptics (0.9.5-1) unstable; urgency=low > > * Initial package for Debian based on the work of Ikuya Awashiro > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for Ubuntu with minor changes > such as removing unused dpatch dependency.

Oh, I don't maintain ksynaptics nor qsynaptics and they are kde things so a gtk configuration tool is really welcome (I admit I don't use it but Suggest-ing all the graphical configuration tools will hopefully ease the user's life. My bad I didn't do it before). bye -- mattia :wq! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
