Hi Wolfgang,I had a problem with the touchpad on my Acer laptop using the 2.6 kernel. It didn't allow the pad to work for tapping and no matter what I did with the configuration it just wouldn't operate, but was otherwise quite usable. I dropped back to the 2.4 kernel and it worked out of the box. Synaptics was the first thing that I picked up with apt-get though, just to make certain.
Installed the 2.4 kernel base system with nothing else on, and then started to add what I needed through apt-get, xfree86-driver-synaptics first. I didn't do that with the 2.6 kernel, and it might have worked had I done that. I might need to try it.

Servus, sorry, that I didn't recognize, that this is an english list. So try again in english:Yesterday, after years using Suse-Linuy, i have installed sarge on my Sony Vaio Laptop. Beside some trouble with the installing procedure, I'm pretty happy with it.Are ther any infos about the differences between suse and sarge, mainly about things like acpi/powersave or the synaptic touchpad etc. ?Currently I have two problems:1) My synaptics touchpad doesm't "klick" if I tap on it. I had the same problem using Suse the first time some years ago, but I forgot how to solve it.2) I want to configure acpi respectivly the powersavedeamon. Using Suse there was a little icon at the menu, but now there isn't any more.Thanx in advance for any help Wolfgang
