Re: Wrong behaviour of touchpad / mouse after upgrade to Etch; and problems with xfce
Is the panel running? You can add buttons to a panel to access the settings page like the menu button. But if the right click button is not working, maybe the desktop manager isn't running.

Slightly disappointed by Etch:
257302 is unresolved after 3 years.
On the DELL D400 X -configure still sets
xorg.conf to /dev/mouse; and
does not find any mouse. So it needs vi to change to /dev/input/mice
before it starts.
The default configure at upgrade leaves the touchpad almost
non-functional: To move the mouse pointer across the screen, I need > 10
full strokes on the pad; the sensitivity is very low; and is unaffected
by the settings in the desktop; whatever I set, the sensitivity remains
extremely low and unchanged.
Therefore I did the X -configure, vi
xorg.conf.new, cp xorg.conf
/etc/X11. Now the sensitivity is normal.
The whole set of personal settings for Xfce are lost. I get a default
setting, which is wrong (AFAICS), because there seems to be no way to
reach the 'Settings'; I can't change anything. The right mouse click
does not show anything; contrary to a fresh install.
