I've got the same setup, but no problems. My xorg.conf can be found at: http://spr.mahonri5.net/files/mm20/xorg.conf The more relevant parts are: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Mouse1" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "synaptics" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0" Option "LeftEdge" "1700" ... options for synaptics ... Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Hope this helps out. -- Scott Paul Robertson http://spr.mahonri5.net GnuPG FingerPrint: 09ab 64b5 edc0 903e 93ce edb9 3bcc f8fb dc5d 7601
