Bug#575674: synaptics touchpad ignored(?)



Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
Version: 1.2.1-1

Hardware: Dell XPS M1330

Problem: The synaptics touchpad is ignored, as it seems. I just get 2 mouse
buttons and basic "mouse" functionality, even though it appears in the
(attached) X log file. The scroll regions at the right or lower edge are not
recognized, nor does tapping work. Emulate3Buttons works.

The xorg.conf file has been wiped out to make sure its not a configuration
issue. There is no private udev rules file or hal config file, either.
KDE or Gnome are not used, just plain X plus fvwm2 manually started on the
console.

"xinput list" shows

On another famous Debian-based Linux distro (current 10.04) it works out
of the box.
