Hi, How do I change the Sensitivity, Palm Check and the Zone settings of the touch pad in SuSe 10.1 My machine is a R52 IBM Thinkpad. I have searched in harware settings under Yast and under Personal Settings but couldn't find any such option. If this can be done through command line, then kindly tell me exactly how to go about it Thanks -- Puneit Singh 0091-9350832020

If this can be done through command line, then kindly tell me exactly how to go about it Thanks I have an HP NX6125. Under Personal Settings (eg. KDE control Panel)/Peripherals at the bottom you should see Touchpad.
When I initially installed 10.0 on this laptop, I set the mouse to use the PS/2 driver and not the synaptics driver, but in 10.1 the control panel touchpad controls seem to work. Otherwise there are a few hacks you can do under mouse by changing a few of the settings. All experimental. Additionally, there is a tpconfig utility you can download. http://www.compass.com/synaptics/ I have not tested this on the more recent SuSE releases, but I did use it a few years ago with the 2.2 kernels. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9

Ksynaptics was not installed. Installed it, and now the touch-pad option comes under Personal Settings. Thanks for the help -- Puneit Singh 0091-9350832020
