Hey all,
Wondering if anyone can help with a little problem that I have using FC4
on a Dell Latitude c610 with the synaptics touchpad as well as a
standard PS/2 mouse.
I am unable to plug-in a PS/2 mouse without the system loosing the
mouse and keyboard.
I got synaptic touchpad and usb mouse. When I boot without mouse plugged
in, everything works like a charm. I can turn off the touchpad and back
on. I can plug the mouse and get it working. However if I boot the
system with the mouse plugged the synaptics driver does not get loaded,
and touchpad is recognized as generic wheel mouse. Obviously I'm screwed
here because none of my settings for touchpad is working, and you
cannot turn it off with the button, the mouse is working fine though.
and here is part of my xorg
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "0"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "60"
Option "TapButton2" "1"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

EndSection

Identifier "Server Layout"
Screen "Screen0" 0 0

Maybe our problems have common root?
