Subject:   tapping touchpad on laptops
Message-ID:  <3A1A9869.723FB7C5@math.missouri.edu>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
A while back I looked into a program to configure the synaptics touchpad
that comes with many laptops.  For example, one might like to make it so
that tapping the touchpad is not like clicking a mouse button.

I wrote a port for the program tpconfig that appears on
http://www.compass.com/synaptics/
but it required an additional ioctl for the mouse, that is, it
required a patch to the kernel.

I submitted a couple of PR's viz
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=21520
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=20352
(one for the port and one for the kernel change) but I never heard back
from anyone.

What do people think?
