Hi all

In my Slackware 12.1, touchpad works but not enough, cannot scroll.

I have installed synaptics, and I got this in the X log:

Code:

(II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 0.14.6 (1406)
Synaptics Mouse no synaptics event device found (checked 20 nodes)
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
(**) Option "LeftEdge" "1700"
(**) Option "RightEdge" "5300"
(**) Option "TopEdge" "1700"
(**) Option "BottomEdge" "4200"
(**) Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
(**) Option "FingerLow" "25"
(**) Option "FingerHigh" "30"
(**) Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
(**) Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
(**) Option "CornerCoasting" "1"
Query no Synaptics: 6003C8
(EE) Synaptics Mouse no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device
(EE) Synaptics Mouse Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics Mouse"
(II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"

How to enable the scroll function ?

Thanks..

It seems that your touchpad is not being detected.
Check your xorg.conf and /etc/modprobe.d/psmouse files for correct settings.
