Now I do have a functioning mouse cursor and Xorg does indeed start, but the Synaptics driver won't load. I'm guessing because the touchpad is filtered via /dev/sysmouse and it can't pick up what it needs to run correctly. Now I get the following if I try and use the synaptics driver in Xorg: (EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device (EE) Synaptics Touchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware. (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics Touchpad" Then Xorg fails to start with the errors I mentioned earlier. For the moment I've reverted to the generic mouse driver - at least I can get to X, although the touchpad is still lacking all its wonderful goodies which made it a pleasure to use (scrolling, etc). (Also sending back to the list as I've got an annoying habit of hitting reply, instead of reply all) -- Regards, Paul Fraser http://furyc0de.net/
