Just re-sized my linux partition and installed Debian Lenny KDE. Have
been running Etch with Gnome for months now but thought I'd give KDE a
try. The install went flawlessly and getting wireless up and running
only required copying the intel files into /lib/firmware, doing a
restart and boom I was up and running.
I can't find a way to control the touchpad. I can move the cursor but
scrolling doesn't work and the sensitivity is way too high.
If I go to the control center there's no entry for the touchpad in the
peripherals section, though there is an entry for a mouse.
Have done some searching and not really found anything that worked. Did
try adding the following to the xorg.conf folder:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0"
Option "SHMConfig" "true"
EndSection
That however hasn't done anything.
Anyone know how I can get a handle on this.
Jim
