Scrolling Synaptic Touchpad Problem (Arch Wiki didn't solve it)

codebuster · 2010-07-26 04:23:01

Good to the whole Arch's community.

First of all to appear, I am codebuster and am new in this community and in this magnificent distro that I have been charmed with for his simplicity and performance. Always I had begun for behind the topic of the configuration of Arch's installation, but consulting his magnificent tips and coming to the official information it me has been possible. I have everything working of correct form except the function of scroll of my touchpad Synaptic (function that I use always and that really I throw enough in lack). I have followed the steps indicated so much in the Wiki (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics) as in numerous forums of linux in inet but I have not managed to make it work, for what I resort to you to seeing if someone can throw something of light.

Let's begin.

Good, I believe that this is quite, if you need more information tell to me and it will make it come near.

Excuse me for my poor english,Thanks in advance and best regards.

¡¡¡¡ Thanks a lot for the info !!!

I remove all the Synaptics entries in the xorg.conf and worked fine with the /dev/input/mice option (in the Arch Wiki was # commented, the device, was /dev/psaux, and my mouse in hardinfo was recognized as PS/2 Synaptic for that I thought that it was the correct option ).

Only one question, now I have set the scrolling mode with two fingers, ¿do you know how to activate one finger scrolling? I tried with these options in Mouse section but doesn't work for me:

Option      "VertEdgeScroll"    "true"  # enable vertical scroll zone
Option      "HorizEdgeScroll"   "false"  # enable horizontal scroll zone
Option      "VertTwoFingerScroll"   "false"  # vertical scroll anywhere with two fingers
Option      "HorizTwoFingerScroll"  "false"  # horizontal scroll anywhere with two fingers

¡ Many, many thanks and my best regards !

Bad news, the Touchpad scrolling only works one session, at the next reboot once again the same problem.... I don't believe it!

I'm desperate, I'm don't know how to resolve this trouble. HELP!

a working conf was shown further you have to try yourself and take care of some, for eg bus id, to get it working. more over you did not give any details about the error message etc.

Note: wiki is for you. If you find a solution update the wiki.
