This isn't actually supposed to let me set what features to use on the
touchpad, is it? I mean, after doing this, I get tap-to-click, edge
scrolling and working scroll buttons ('mouse wheel' equivalent).
However, not everyone wants all the features - e.g. i've been
considering whether it wouldn't be more convenient to use the scroll
buttons as middle mouse button since I can just use edge-scroll instead,
and I know some people who absolutely detest tap-to-click (although I
personally hate using a touchpad without it). So some kind of
feature-configuration interface would certainly be nice. (I guess it
would best be integrated in system-config-mouse?) FC4 material in all
likelihood, thanks a lot for getting the touchpads working sanely in any
case!
