Synaptics Driver Can't find synaptic touchpad
-
Xorg recognizes my touchpad under /dev/input/mice , and assigns "mouse" driver to it. When i ask it to use xorg's synaptics driver, it returns, "No synaptics device found. Tried 13 nodes. The synaptics touchpad is showing under /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/input8, which shows a device 'mouse1' but it is not showing in /dev/input which only lists mouse0, mice, event0, event1, event2, ts0 (none of which are returning synaptics driver's probing). I wish to use synaptics driver and hence use double-tap drag-lock etc. Anybody knows what i should be doing? (mouse1 also shows under /sys/devices/virtual/input/mice/subsystem/ and so does mice and mouse0 and whole lot of others.mouse1 also shows under /sys/dev/char/13:33/ which just links it to /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio4/input8 ...) I mknod a character device mouse1 in /dev/input with major 13 and minor 33 , but that doesn't work, either. Anybody can help me with how to get the synaptics driver work with my touchpad?

hi
1 . install package "Xorg-xf86-input-synaptics"
2. open file "/etc/X11/Xorg.conf " with leafpad (in root)
in Xorg.conf add at : Section "ServerLayout"
InputDevice "Synaptics Touchpad" "AlwaysCore"
and add at : Section "Module"
Load "synaptics"
and add a new section under inputdevice like that :
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "1"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "LeftEdge" "1700"
Option "RightEdge" "5300"
Option "TopEdge" "1700"
Option "BottomEdge" "4200"
Option "FingerLow" "25"
Option "FingerHigh" "30"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.09"
Option "MaxSpeed" "0.18"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.0015"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "3"
Option "TapButton3" "2"

EndSection
3 . Save file and restart your pc

I have the same problem when using 2.6.32.x compiled myself. I suspect there's some kernel modules that is missing. When I used slitaz's default kernel (2.6.30.6) + xorg-xf86-input-synaptics + hal fdi from archlinux (located in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi), the touchpad works fine.
Howdy, Stranger!
