Hi there. I have *exactly* the opposite problem: I'm using the most up-to-date karmic possible, I have a Dell Latitude D520 and I want to use the touchpad with tapping, but I have not succeded with using "gnome-mouse- properties" or with "gpointing-device-settings".
Changing the xorg.conf to have hard-coded settings does not work (it just seems to be read according to the log, but things like, say, the keyboard layout specified there and the dontzap option seem to be ignored completely). Anyway, the only workaround that I found was to use: synclient TapButton1=1 TapButton2=2 TapButton3=3 due to upstream's decision of removing tapping if a touchpad has at least one button (as is documented in the synaptics(4) manpage). Thanks, Rogério Brito. -- I can not disable touchpad through "gnome-mouse-properties" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/404434 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
