xserver-xorg-input-synaptics for Debian
---------------------------------------
This package contains the Synaptics TouchPad driver for X.Org X server.
See also the README file for details on configuration options.
Runtime configuration
---------------------
The synclient and xinput tools allow configuring various aspects of the
driver's behaviour. See the synaptics(4) man page for details of the
configurable options.
Manual configuration
--------------------
1. Load the driver by changing the X.Org configuration file
(/etc/X11/xorg.conf) through adding the line 'Load
"synaptics"' in the module section.
2. Add/Replace in the InputDevice section for the touchpad the
following lines:
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "synaptics"
Identifier "touchpad"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
#
# Following lines are optional thus commented in this example.
# Please read the synaptics(4) manpage for a detailed explanation
# of the various options' meaning as well as a full list of options
#
# Option "LeftEdge" "1700"
# Option "RightEdge" "5300"
# Option "TopEdge" "1700"
# Option "BottomEdge" "4200"
# Option "FingerLow" "25"
# Option "FingerHigh" "30"
# Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
# Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
# Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
# Option "MinSpeed" "0.06"
# Option "MaxSpeed" "0.12"
# Option "AccelFactor" "0.0010"
# Option "Repeater" "/dev/ps2mouse"
EndSection
Change the Identifier to the same name as in the ServerLayout section.
The Option "Repeater" is at the moment for testing.
3. Add the "CorePointer" option to the InputDevice line at the ServerLayout section:
Section "ServerLayout"
...
InputDevice "touchpad" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "USB Mouse" "SendCoreEvents"
...
Note! You can not have more than one core pointer, so if you want
to use an external mouse too, you have to set all mouse input
devices except one to "AlwaysCore" instead of "CorePointer".
4. Start/Restart the X Server. If the touchpad doesn't work:
a) Check the X.Org Logfiles
b) Try to start the XServer with 'startx -- -logverbose 8' for more
Output
Other relevant information to use this driver
---------------------------------------------
1. For use with kernel 2.6.x you need to enable synaptics touchpad
support when configuring the kernel (CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2). You also
need support for the evdev interface (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV). If you
compile evdev as a module, make sure it is loaded before starting
the X server, as it will not be auto-loaded.
2. For use with an ALPS touchpad, you need to use a 2.6.x kernel and
apply the alps patch. See the README.alps file for more details.
Note! If you use kernel 2.6.11 or later, the alps patch is already
included, so you don't have to patch your kernel.
3. Using with kernel 2.4.x for x < 10 needs a kernel patch
(pc_keyb.c.diff.2.4.3).
Running 'syndaemon' automatically
---------------------------------
The easiest way to run the syndaemon binary each time you startup X you can
simply add the following line to your ~/.xinitrc file:
/usr/bin/syndaemon -i 1 -d
Customize the daemon options to fit your needs, the only mandatory option is
'-d' to run syndaemon in the background. See 'man 1 syndaemon' for more.
