--- Begin Message ---Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Version: 1.2.1-1 Hardware: Dell XPS M1330 Problem: The synaptics touchpad is ignored, as it seems. I just get 2 mouse buttons and basic "mouse" functionality, even though it appears in the (attached) X log file. The scroll regions at the right or lower edge are not recognized, nor does tapping work. Emulate3Buttons works. The xorg.conf file has been wiped out to make sure its not a configuration issue. There is no private udev rules file or hal config file, either. KDE or Gnome are not used, just plain X plus fvwm2 manually started on the console. "xinput list" shows â¡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] â â³ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] â â³ "Broadcom Corp" id=10 [slave pointer (2)] â â³ "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" id=13 [slave pointer (2)] ⣠Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] â³ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "Video Bus" id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "Power Button" id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "Sleep Button" id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "Broadcom Corp" id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "Laptop Integrated Webcam" id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "ACPI Virtual Keyboard Device" id=14 [slave keyboard (3)] â³ "Dell WMI hotkeys" id=15 [slave keyboard (3)] On another famous Debian-based Linux distro (current 10.04) it works out of the box.

"If the kernel reports multi-finger detection, two-finger vertical scrolling is enabled, horizontal two-finger scrolling is disabled and edge scrolling is disabled. If no multi-finger capabilities are reported, edge scrolling is enabled for both horizontal and vertical scrolling." your hardware reports this: (II) "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad": buttons: left right middle double triple and in fact the configuration reported by synclient is: VertEdgeScroll = 0 HorizEdgeScroll = 0 ... VertTwoFingerScroll = 1 HorizTwoFingerScroll = 0 ...

I get mouse movement events instead > of scroll wheel events, as xev shows. so it should be just a matter of setting reasonable *Edge values (not needed in most cases as the kernel will report the touchpad geometry and the driver will calculate appropiate values for the edges) and enabling the features in your configuration. Ubuntu includes patches[1] to enable all the features above, it's been discussed multiple time and the same patches will not be included in the Debian package.
