Are you sure you have configured the routes properly? The best is to
configure /etc/network/interfaces and use ifup and ifdown.

ping is in the inetutils-ping packages. That's strange it is not
installed by default. I'll look at that when generating the next
installer CD.

I am not sure it is something currently supported, it seems you are
the first to try that.

This function can be found in the libfreebsd-dev package in
GNU/kFreeBSD, but be advised this is not yet a portable interface, and
your package will not build on other GNU systems. In the future we'll
try to abstract this (and other such functions) and probably move them
to libbsd.

synaptics touchpad doesn't work

2009-04-08 Thread Canhua
hi,

I am using Samsung laptop X05, and I find the touchpad doesn't work properly,
for example, when I want to move around the pointer work actually like the
left and right button were clicked randomly.

I found no xorg-input-synaptics package as in Debian GNU/Linux

best wishes

Canhua
