I reallly need a reply to a post I made about synaptics touchpad. I wan to disable the touchpad properties. They drive me crazy. You know writing one second and then being two pages back the next. Or maybe half your lines are deleted? Please somebody help me fix this! Synclient does not work. I get error messages. Anyone?
Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
no it automatically set it up. I can't find my xorg.conf file unless you mean the one in etc/X11. That one has nothing regarding my mouse settings. I know what to change, but not where to change it.
there was a bunch more stuff but if ur "ServerLayout" looks like/similar to that I am sure that you can just remove the Synaptics mouse input device and that should stop it from using it at all...
Funny thing is this is the second time I am typing up this reply cuss my finger hit the scroll button and it freaked out and went like 10 pages backwards. So I am going to disable it right now actually...

beatupbilly - as acid_kewpie has already indicated, please don't post the same question in multiple forums. The twin question you posted in Fedora has been closed; I will leave this one open since it has received some replies. In the future, please just post a given question once. Thanks -- J.W.
