Thanks for the quick reply. I could only make it work with "two-finger
scrolling". I could not find anything related to "two-finger drag and
drop"?
On the Mac, I could hold one finger on the touchpad and move another
finger around to drag and drop something easily.
Can we do the same on Fedora 12?
Thanks & regards,
Khem

be sure that you have this package...
xorg-x11-drv-synaptics
check to see if you have two finger scrolling enabled with the utility
gnome-mouse-properties...

also options no longer go in the xorg.conf and instead should be
migrated to a hal fdi configuration; placed in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/
http://queuemail.com/10-synaptics.fdi
documentation for the configuration can be found in the manual pages
http://linux.die.net/man/5/synaptics
some other good general documentation can be found here...
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics
this works on a mbp4,1...

I tried to follow this one:

but it did not work.
Any more pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
