Re: Turning off touchpad "scroll"



you should try loading the synaptics driver

install it first

i don't remember exactly the steps, but it is something like that!
it seems that the synaptics drivers are not installed by default in laptops anymore

cheers!

Hi. Up to date Sid.

Back before the recent changes in X, I had put this in my xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "Synaptics Touchpad"
       Driver          "synaptics"
       Option          "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
       Option          "Device"                "/dev/psaux"
       Option          "Protocol"              "auto-dev"
       Option          "VertEdgeScroll"        "false"
       Option          "HorizEdgeScroll"       "false"
EndSection

and the very annoying "scroll" areas were gloriously gone.

But now, after the change in X where most of the specific
configuration options are autodetected, I'm back to having "scroll"
areas.

So I put the following into the only place available in the new
xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "Configured Mouse"
       Driver          "mouse"
       Option          "VertEdgeScroll"        "false"
       Option          "HorizEdgeScroll"       "false"
EndSection

but the annoying "scroll" remains.

Suggestions?
