          dist-upgraded a few days ago (problem was there before and after...)
 
Small (but annoying) mousepad problem: too sensitize to "tapping"...
 
Unabe to disable tapping using tpconfig/ksynaptics....
 
 
No Synaptics error messages in logs..but:
 
 
# synclient -l
 
Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled?
 
 
but SHMConfig is enabled in Xorg.conf and driver loaded... |

          | open the console and run synaptics. Than follow the instructions the menu presents. You must do it for all users because of none central synaptics rc-file. |

          Thank you for the reply.
 
 
As I was saying: I have run ksynatics.  I have also tried "tpconfig" and synclient:
 
 
synclient -h:
 
Can't access shared memory area. SHMconfig disabled?
 
 
Note that SHMconfig is "on" in Xorg.conf and X xerver was restarted.... |

          than please reinstall qsynaptics and remove tpconfig. this is used by IBM/Lenevo and Toshiba Labtops.
 
 
be carefull qsynaptic is a pakeagemanager while qsynaptics is what you need reinstalled. |

          hummm,
 
 
I could try to reinstall Ksynaptics(*)... though I thought I did that too.  BTW, this is an "ALPS Glidepoint" device. I thought that both Synatics and ALPS device drivers where in the new kernel (do I need to do anything to make sure the right one is loaded?)  I'll report on the re-install.  
 
 
(*) Qsynaptics complains that the synaptics drivers need to be installed.  It also requests that "X shared memory be enabled in XF86Config"....
 
 
Ok, I did
 
apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, ksynaptics, tpconfig
 
and 
 
apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics, ksynaptics
 
 
Then ran ksynaptics : unable to disable tapping, and:
 
synclient -h
 
Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled?
 
 
# grep SHMConfig /etc/X11/xorg.conf
 
        Option          "SHMConfig"             "on"
 
 
 
Thank your for your attention. |

(0)Identiy device in  /proc/bus/input/devices
 
if ALPS:
 
(1)Ksynaptics is useless for ALPS
 
(2)Qsynaptics works, but user need to turn "on" "SHMConfig" in the "ALPS TouchPad" "InputDevice" Section of Xorg.conf
 
(2)disbaled tapping with 'Option "ClickTime" "0"'  
 
 
...nice not to have to pussyfoot around the mousepad   |
