This is my first laptop install and i am having trouble in the area of the touchpad. First though hardware, the laptop is a compaq presario 2108us(2800+ mobile athlon xp). http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?lc=en&cc=us&docname=c00208230
I was finally able to get X to start up after fiddling around with the mouse section. In the end though this was the only way i can get X to even come up. However the problem lies in that X freezes up or is not even usable. Essentialy i move my finger along the touchpad, itll take a minute to move, and/or blurred lines will appear at the top of the screen. Heres my XConfig, any other parts needed just ask- Section "inputdevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "Mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0" Option "protocol" "ImPS/2" Endsection ls /dev/input shows event0 event1 i have also install xfree86-drivers-synaptics, and input synaptics under drivers and got configured mose no synaptics event device found checked 12 nodes query no synaptics: 0000 configured mouse no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device configured mouse unable to query/initialize synaptics hardware preinit failed for input device configured mouse no core pointer for the kernel im using 2.6.11-1-k, and havce acpi=on and apm=on, tried turning both off and didnt make a difference Other questions have a general guide as how to configure this laptop tips/suggestions thanks in advance. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
