I would say this is more of a request for inclusion of ksynaptics in dapper LTS (dapperLTS+1, now, I suppose). Changing bug name to reflect that.
..but it does hinge on resolution of bug #3406. Mousepad control is a very important feature for laptop users - some mousepads are not very usable without this. This utility allows setting of where the borders are located as well as acceleration settings (some mousepads are unusably slow or unusably fast). This is a show-stopper for some people (if they don't have USB mouse ;-). ** Summary changed: - Kubuntu Flight 5: Support for mousepad configuration in system settings + Dapper: Ksynaptics: Include support for mousepad configuration in system settings -- Dapper: Ksynaptics: Include support for mousepad configuration in system settings https://launchpad.net/bugs/36557 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
