Everything seems to work in 11.4 Gnome except the touchpad. It is coming up as PS/2 mouse, but the kernel doesn't appear to be recognizing that it's a touchpad. It's close to unusable - it needs real drivers. I haven't tried 12.1 - I plan to,though. All I've been able to find out via Google is Ubuntu 11.04 has similar issues and that there are some drivers that seem to fix it. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/681904/comments/103 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/681904 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install openSUSE 11.4 2. Boot into GNOME desktop 3. Use the machine. Actual Results: The touchpad is usable, but none of the touchpad utilites recognize it . they think it's a mouse. And it's jumpy and erratic. And there's no way to turn it off when using an external mouse. Expected Results: All the touchpad utilities work and I can turn it off when using an external 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.
