Hi! I tested this on two different laptops: acer 1692 wlmi asus eeepc 700 They both show this behavior in Gutsy, Hardy and Intrepid. To get some perspective I tried to compare to a usb mouse and I must say an optical low end usb mouse reduces causes about 60 events a second. Much better than the usual 200/300 a second I am getting with the synaptics driver.
Does anyone know what is the behavior of other touchpad drivers? 2008/8/16, Tomas Pospisek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Leann Ogasawara wrote 11 hours ago: (permalink) > >> Can you comment if this is still an issue with the Hardy Heron 8.04 > release? > > $ cat /etc/issue > Ubuntu 8.04.1 \n \l > > And then from powertop: > > 66,8% (495,6) <interrupt> : PS/2 keyboard/mouse/touchpad > > In short: Yes, it's still an issue for the Hardy Heron 8.04 release. > > I don't have an Intrepid Ibex 8.10 to test on.
