Apple Magic Trackpad freeze after three finger touch

Hi at all!

I have the Apple Magic Trackpad and i wanted to use it with Arch. I installed the synaptics driver and the trackpad has the basic functionality like tap, scroll with two finger and second click with two-finger tap, however if a put three finger on it the trackpad freeze for like 10 seconds and then I'm able to continue using it. Now I don't even know where to start   looking for the problem... Someone know how to help me??

Re: Apple Magic Trackpad freeze after three finger touch

Could you reproduce the freeze (do a three finger touch) and then post the output of 'dmesg'? I'm not sure if I can help, but this would be a good start.

The new evdev-driver should be able to handle multitouch. Iirc yesterday the RC was released, and the final version should not be to far away.

Hi! I have the same problem. Problem solved? Logs are clean. Works only on pressing touch, but only as a one-touch.
