I don't know how to check whether my touchpad is in absoulte mode or not, but KDE system settings -> input devices doesn't list any additional touchpads at all, only a mouse. Which affects both mouse and touchpad. Could this be not a DE, but a xorg/driver problem afetr all? As I messed up sending previous letter, to what Greg has pointed me, I will quote myself: Can't confirm this. Sony Vaio VPCEH2L1R (p.d.
