Hi,

How do i make my Laptop's touchpad work under "Fedora Core 2", I have a
Compaq Presario 1277. It used to work under "Red Hat 9.0"

Thanks.

adding the below to the end of the kernel line in grub works for my laptop and several others,

psmouse.proto=imps

My grub.conf line looks like below for example.

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.6-1.435.2.3 ro root=LABEL=/ 3 psmouse.proto=imps
