Lightbulb acer aspire 1691 touchpad and soundcard problem


Hey,
I have an 'acer aspire 1691 WLMi' laptop. I installed fedora core 4 on it. Most of the things work now.

Still, the soundcard 'conexant AMC Audio' is not recognized.

My other problam is the touchpad which is too sensitive. I'd like to turn of the oportunity to klick at all.

I'm new to linux, so I don't understand a lot about it. I still hope, that somebody can help me.



thanks

Sorry dont know anything about your audio problem.

But you could install package called ksynaptics, that is GUI-config program for touchpads. Also check that you have package synaptics installed, I believe that is the driver for you touchpad.

If you do not know how to do this, here is a tip:
yum install synaptics
yum install ksynaptics

Hope this helps.
