There's a ksynaptics as well for kde. But, you have to meddle in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf to get it to work. Add the following to the Section
"InputDevice" that has Driver "synaptics" and restart X:
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
I'd agree with Mr Mossberg as well, it ain't quite ready for the
primetime of grannies and so on (unless someone is admin-ing it for
them, in which case it was "ready" a couple of years ago).
But of course on Windows I seem to recall having to sneak miserably
around in the Registry to get things work, entering Hardware Driver Hell
because I plugged a USB device in before I found the driver CD, crashy
video drivers, etc. I think a lot of the jolt at having to meddle with
stuff is just because the stuff to meddle with is different, not that it
is so much more complicated.
