Hi all,
to get my synaptics touchpad work properly I always have to execute the
following command after login:
xinput set-mode appletouch ABSOLUTE
I tried to configure it via HAL but without any luck:
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
...
<merge key="input.x11_options.Mode" type="string">absolute</merge>
...
All other options configured via HAL take effect except the "Mode" one
(btw. I do not have xorg.conf file).
$ lshal | grep Mode
input.x11_options.Mode = 'absolute' (string)
HAL is properly configured. So this is not the problem. Does someone
have an idea why all other options are taken but not the "Mode" one?
- Fedora 11 with latest updates from today.
- Apple PowerBook G4 (one of the latest Aluminium versions)
cheers
Stefan
