Only two minor fixes for the stable 1.2 series. This version will work with the upcoming 1.8 X server release though you _must_ recompile, the ABI has been bumped. If you plan to use synaptics 1.2.2 with server 1.8, the following config snippet is recommended in /etc/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf:
Section "InputClass" Identifier "touchpad catchall" Driver "synaptics" MatchIsTouchpad "on" MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*" EndSection There are a number of fixes on master and that'll be synaptics 1.3.0 soon. However, I've got one more fix in the pipe that's stalling it a bit (improved pointer acceleration that I need to find the time to evaluate first). So expect 1.3 to come out after server 1.8 but I don't want to give a timeframe just yet. Adam Jackson (1): Don't clobber the timer we just created. Peter Hutterer (2): After closing the fd, reset it to -1. synaptics 1.2.2 git tag: xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2.tar.bz2 MD5: d8842f762bf3f20098c529136dac578c xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2.tar.bz2 SHA1: 20ee874ef3dd391dbcfb03285b1b352c0234a00f xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2.tar.bz2 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2.tar.gz MD5: 99f954aeb034956ffcc642bdc2e57f67 xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2.tar.gz SHA1: a533cce76608ff0c62ed3ddafcdb691d45117a35 xf86-input-synaptics-1.2.2.tar.gz
