Touchpad

Tips And Tricks

Q:

How can I install and configure Synaptics?

A:

Synaptics driver is probably already working. You can personalize it editing the file:

/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf

Here is the configuration I use (similar to my OSX trackpad configuration):

Section "InputClass"

Identifier "touchpad"

Driver "synaptics"

MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"

MatchIsTouchpad "on"

Option "TapButton1" "1"

Option "TapButton2" "3"

Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "1"

Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "1"
