touchpad can not work in Slackware9.1
Hi all
I got the problem with touchpad support in Slack9.1. I have added follows in XF86Config Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Touchpad" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" #tried IMPS/2 also Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" ..... InputDevice "Touchpad" EndSection My MS Intellimouse works fine, but Gnome still can not find the touchpad. :confused: |
Did you enter those lines manually, or did you use something like xf86config to do it? Personally I'd highly recommend using the program to build the XF86Config. In any event, I used the LQ search function with the terms "XF86Config touchpad" and found this (among many others). Hopefully there will be something there that will be useful, good luck http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...onfig+touchpad

hmm, my XFConfig in Slack 9.1 says

I have tried all of above, but still can not work.
But the way, can I use the gpm to active touchpad? (something like gpm /dev/psaux....) |
In Slackware 9.1 there's an /etc/rc.d/rc.gpm ;)
The command to use my PS/2 mouse is that one: /usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/psaux -t ps2 and you'll get the rest from "man gpm" ;) BTW: Have you ever got the mouse AND the touchpad working at the same time. There are a couple of notebooks that deactivate the TP once a mouse is connected. |
