Hi all,

I have a 9.3 installation on a Toshiba Sattelite laptop, and the
touchpad is really twichy. The touchpad is configured so that it
recognizes "tap" gestures, and also some kind of "tap and drag" or
maybe a simulated scroll-wheel. These are a real pain in the whatnot,
as they cause unwanted clicks while I'm just moving the pointer across
the screen, and sometimes cause some real high-jinks when it goes into
the undetermined draggy/scrolly mode.

I went into SaX2 and turned off all that I could turn off (which only
appeared to be third button emulation and scroll-wheel), and rebooted
but nothing changed.

How can I turn off these gestures and just have plain movement on the
touch pad (there are physical buttons below the pad, so I don't need
these gestures anyway).

TIA,
Cheers,
Simon
