Synaptics touch pad not working to fullest on FC2 to FC3T3 upgrade

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My HP7280 has a Synaptics touchpad as verified in both Windows XP and
Linux.

I've read in the list of an enhanced functionality driver for this
touchpad, ie includes working scrollbar.  The scroll bar on mine does
not work.  Touch tapping does work and it did not in FC2. 

Furthermore, I am operating with a USB wireless optical mouse and the
touchpad.  Only one device, ie "Mouse" is displayed in Start-
>ControlCenter->Peripherals->Mouse.  The touchpad does respond to the
changes made in the "Mouse" settings, but so does the optical mouse.
There is no way to turn the tap select or scrolling on or off. 

Questions: 

Should a second device ie "Touchpad" appear in this list ?

Why doesn't my touchpad have scrolling like the others are talking
about ?


Thanks.



Info to follow:

$/sbin/lsmod: doesn't show anything about Synaptics, mouse or touchpad. 

hwbrowser: Pointing devices shows 2 items: Logitech Cordless Mouse and
SynPS/2 Synaptics Touchpad. 

The Logitech uses driver genericwheelusb and is /dev/input/mice

The Synaptics uses driver synaptics and is /dev/input/mice
