Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Version: 0.14.7~git20070517-1 Severity: normal
When I use the new version 0.14.7~git20070517-1 of the synaptics driver, I can no longer do proper tapping with my finger, and whenever I put my finger down on the touchpad (appletouch) the mouse cursor jumps around. When jumping around, the cursor appears to favour moving to the left, but I couldn't really see any sense in the position it jumped to, it definitely wasn't the position I'd have expected for an absolute pad driven by the standard X driver. I have verified that synaptics is used (by turning the touchpad off with synclient) and I have diffed for new config options in .7, these are: * FingerPress, * TrackstickSpeed and * EmulateTwoFingerMinZ but changing them doesn't have any effect on the jumping cursor behaviour. To summarize: Instead of doing a button press when tapping the touchpad, the mouse cursor jumps around randomly with version 0.14.7~git...-1, I initially thought this was the "trackstick emulation" but that doesn't seem to be the case based on the description and the fact that the new options don't affect the observed behaviour. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-rc1-g79e90214-dirty (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xserver-xorg-input-synaptics depends on: ii libc6 2.6~20070518-1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libx11-6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 2:1.1.0-2 X11 Input extension library ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-5 X.Org X server -- core server xserver-xorg-input-synaptics recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
