well, touchpad issues are always a good topic. one thing we've recently realized that would be very low risk would be to change the "xset" command in /usr/bin/olpc-session from "xset 7/4 0" to either "xset 7/6 0" or "xset 7/4 1". both of these changes were commited to git over a year ago, but at about that time the branch from which olpc-utils was being built was changed (at least, i think that's what happened) and neither change made it into a release. i've personally been using the "xset 7/4 1" version for a very long time, and it works well. (but we're also thinking that maybe even a much higher threshold, like 10 or 20 might be even better -- the goal being to make very fine movements, as are necessary in something like etoys, more predictable -- *feedback, please*.) in addition, we're trying to settle on some mouse driver changes, hoping to improve the jumpiness/recalibration issues we've been seeing forever. if nothing else, a next release _must_ be built with a modular mouse driver, to make deploying incremental changes to that driver more feasible. paul =--------------------- paul fox, p...@laptop.org _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
