Bug#649284: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics: updownscrollrepeat option not works



Hi,

Sergey Dorofeev <sergey@fidoman.ru> (19/11/2011):

the bug script output below says:

| /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d does not exist.

How did you try? Anyway, I don't think it matters much, see below.

Those options might be hardware-specific, I'll have to check that.
UpDownScrollRepeat appears in “synclient -l” output here, and can be set
this way. (Beware, you want =0 or =1 for bools in synclient.)

What was the last version with those options working for you?
