 |
|
when I look at the bootup, my system recognizes my alps touchpad.
dmesg gives these lines:
| Code: |
...
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0
ALPS Touchpad (Glidepoint) detected
Enabling hardware tapping
input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS TouchPad on isa0060/serio1
...
|
does this mean that tap to click is enabled, or does "hardware tapping" refer to something completely different? If so, how can I turn it off? If not, I guess I'll look more into the synaptic drivers to figure out how to shut it off. Can someone explain this message to me? |

I dont think that that means that tapping is enabled I think it is refering to something else, but I do know that tap to click is enabled by default. Anyway to turn it off you need to put this in your xorg.conf:
| Code: | Section "InputDevice"
Driver "synaptics"
Identifier "TouchPad"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "LeftEdge" "1700"
Option "RightEdge" "5300"
Option "TopEdge" "1700"
Option "BottomEdge" "4200"
Option "FingerLow" "25"
Option "FingerHigh" "30"
Option "MaxTapTime" "0"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.09"
Option "MaxSpeed" "0.18"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.0015"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
EndSection

The part that you want is the Option maxtaptime set to 0. I just decieded to post the whole thing.
