synaptics configuration after upgrade to F11

[Michael Harrison]

Posting a solution in case anyone needs it in the future. I renamed several gnome config files and the problem went away when they got recreated from scratch at the next login. The files I renamed were: .config, .gconf, .gnome2_private, .gonme2.

Cheers,
-Mike

After upgrading to F11 the Alps touchpad moves the pointer very slowly. For F10 I had to enable SHMConfig, for which I had a config file in /etc/hal/fdi/policy which contained

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
 <device>
  <match key="input.x11_driver" string="synaptics">
   <merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">True</merge>
  </match>
 </device>
</deviceinfo>

But this no longer does the trick apparently. Oh, and the pointer moves nice as expected while at the GDM screen, before logging in.

Any pointers? Is there an additional config file read after user login that affects the synaptics driver?

Thanks,
-Mike
