I'm on a Asus G73 laptop, and I'm having some issues with my touchpad. Everything works fine for the most part, but there's a few things that act weird. When I'm using one finger, the cursor will sometimes randomly jerk to one side or the other (moves right more often than left), or randomly stop moving briefly. It acts especially screwy when moving the mouse while holding down the mouse button to select text. It does the things mentioned earlier in greater frequency and it will also randomly scroll and paste/move text in odd places (the paste issue started when I moved to KDE). I've tried increasing the synclient values for EmulateTwoFingerMinZ and MinW with no luck. Here's the output of synclient -l. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks for your time.

I had similar issues until I upgraded to the newest synaptics driver (3.99.901). it includes true multitouch support (for touchpads that support this), so the finger detection is much better. Note that you'll need the 2.6.38 kernel for it.

Is that from a package other than xf86-input-synaptics? This is a brand new computer and I've got the latest version from the core repo

its from the new xf86-input-synaptics package that hasnt yet made its way to core. It will eventually (it just came out 10 days ago http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver … ynaptics/), so you can wait for it to make its way to core or install it manually like I did.

Yup that appears to have fixed it. It works fine on the 2.6.37 kernel, btw.
