Hi,
It is really pretty easy to be honest.
if you want to test a parameter just run
synclient [PARAMETER]
I have a little GUI program for doing it, and I will send it your way.

So.. can i temporary set up a new user 'testuser' and do some tests
there without affecting my main user config
how do i make sure that my tests only affect the testuser account?
is it just a matter of putting that config in the /home of that user
and make my changes there??
:-) synclient shows me that i'm getting closer.
synclient -l

looks like i need to find the correct config for these settings.

Scrolling could also be nice as 'scrub-wheel' for audio sequensers,
and video editors
CircularPad could be interesting for panning over an image in gimp
Can't beleive that nobody has explored this any deeper yet.
Thanks a bunch, i'm still a bit nervous about screwing this up.
i'll play with this tomorrow, and hope the CPU doesn't cook my leg.
For now i just like to see this scrollpad working, and would be cool
if this would be working for ever Ubuntu user with this type of
laptop. (All Lifebook S series)
I'll read this post again tomorrow, my brain is a bit fried at the
moment. It looks like this should be simple but this evening the penny
doesn't seem to drop. It could be a sunstitch...

Ok, this will show (numerically) your touchpad capabilities

Ok, so here is the synclient tutorial
LIST the things synclient can configure
synclient -l
It might be a greaat idea to run
synclient -l > $HOME/initial-touchpad-setup
this way you have a backup and a base to test from and go back to.
you can then setup your device by settings those values individually...
Feel free to save your preferences as a script and start it
automatically when you log into your user
for example:
#/bin/bash
synclient MaxTapTime=180 MaxTapMove=221 MaxDoubleTapTime=180
SingleTapTimeout=180 ClickTime=100 EmulateMidButtonTime=75
EmulateTwoFingerMinZ=282 EmulateTwoFingerMinW=7 VertScrollDelta=100
HorizScrollDelta=100 VertEdgeScroll=1 HorizEdgeScroll=0
CornerCoasting=0 VertTwoFingerScroll=0 HorizTwoFingerScroll=0
TouchpadOff=0 LockedDrags=0 LockedDragTimeout=5000 RTCornerButton=0
RBCornerButton=0 LTCornerButton=0 LBCornerButton=0 TapButton1=0
TapButton2=0 TapButton3=0 ClickFinger1=1 ClickFinger2=1 ClickFinger3=0
GrabEventDevice=1 TapAndDragGesture=1 ClickPad=0
This is just one I use in a window manager (not Lubuntu), so you will
need to modify it as your touchpad needs are most likely different.
This should most likely solve your scrolling issue. But maybe we need
to look more into what you need.
It is quite possible that this secondary device is actually the same
thing (both pads connected to the same chip, and relayed to the mother
board as one device) You most likely just need to adjust the ranges
so the secondary pad is within the specfied range.
I do have a FLTK program for configuring settings for this, but I will
have to extract it from another program that it is part of IF you are
REALLY interested in it. It is from a program to configure JWM (a
window manager) but controls virtually every synclient property, as I
really like configurability.
