nyrblue35 Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 hi, i have a dell lattitude C600 which had fedora core 1 on it. the touchpad worked flawlessly until i decided to install drake 10. i got the touchpad working with the synapic driver and editing XF86Config-4 but it there a way to adjust the tap sensitivity of the touchpad? i have to tap it way too hard for my liking. i was thinking it might have to be changed in the file somewhere?: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" 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 "SHMConfig" "on" EndSection any help appreciated, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 I don't know much about laptops and touchpads but you can change the mouse settings from the KDE control center (you have too, ofcourse, use KDE). Maybe there is a similar entry for the touchpad. It's worth a look :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyrblue35 Posted September 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 true it was worth a look but the control center only shows you mouse settings, nothing related to the touchpad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthur Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 change the MaxTapTime option, 180 is in milliseconds I think. recommended is 75 or 180, but I'm not too sure about what exact value you should give it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
