Ksynaptics is offered in the normal Suse installation. Just open Yast2/Software/Software Management and search for it. The fact that this is a KDE app shouldn't matter. At least in KDE, which I use, I can install any Gnome app from the DVD and they run in KDE just fine. I assume/hope Ksynaptics will create an entry in the Gnome menu for you to use. Carlos FL Hmm, strangely, this doesn't happen for me. I searched for synaptics, and found the X11-input-synaptics package, but nothing else. Hmm, I guess maybe that just means I didn't install it? I thought that Yast's software management knew about the stuff that was still on the install disks though. Perhaps not, I'll see if I can kick it a little harder that way.

Sorry, my mistake. CFL
Actually, its my mistake ! KSynaptics is actually related to the Touchpad thingy. Kynaptic is the KDE front-end for apt-get or you can say a QT based version of Synaptic (GTK based front-end for apt-get). I googled around a bit..only to find that KSynaptics is related to the Touchpad thingy. --
