Package: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
Version: 0.14.7~git20070517-2
Severity: wishlist
When adding the default 'synaptics' entry on xorg.conf, it'd be nice to
add
Option "SHMConfig" true
to allow applications like gsynaptics to work out of the box.
Thanks

The SHMConfig option opens a security hole in your system, so that's not
going to happen, sorry.
