When I boot the openSUSE 12.1 Milestone 5 GNOME LiveCD, the system comes up all the way to the desktop. However, the Elan touchpad comes up as a generic PS/2 mouse. The GNOME 3 Mouse and Touchpad settings only show mouse settings. It does function as a pointing device with two buttons, but none of the touchpad utilities even see that there's a touchpad. At the very least, I'd like to be able to turn it off while I have a USB mouse plugged in, which is most of the time. There isn't much research available on this issue. I tried Fedora 15 and it does the same thing. I did find a similar issue in the Ubuntu bug database, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/6819... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/6819... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/6819... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/6819... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get an Asus U46E-BAL5 notebook 2. Boot openSUSE 12.1 MS5 64 bit GNOME LiveCD 3. Try to adjust touchpad settings Actual Results: Only the mouse settings are enabled Expected Results: I expected to be able to set at least some touchpad settings. At the very least I need to disable the touchpad when using a USB mouse. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
