disable touchpad - accidental tap [was: Re: trackpad on powerbook]
Hello,
Since I have bought my Powerbook G4 laptop and installed Debian on it I
had some frustrations:
- accelerated video - not working - currently the radeon drivers do not
support [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] on ppc - not fixable until new drivers?
- my bluetooth mouse is not working. I saw it worked with the ubuntu
live cd, but I don't know what to do to make it work on debian, too. I
copied the /etc dir from ubuntu, but I don't know what should be
replaced in my /etc dir to make the bluetooth mouse work. I suspect the
d-i detects and configures the blue tooth mouse if it detects it.
Couldn't that software be packaged (.deb not .udeb) and used after
installation?
- the touchpad is _extremely_ sensitive and I find myself writing in
various places in a document 'cause I touch t (arrrggh, just happed) the
touchpad accidentally. I found out that with tpconfig I should be able
to configure the touchpad that is is disabled automatically for a period
of time when I start typing, but tpconfig gives me errors:
# tpconfig -i
fatal:
No Synaptics or ALPS touchpad device found
Any help in closing either of the points above is appreciated. Thanks.
