[Bug 380126] Re: [Karmic] Touchpad not recognised correctly, synaptics driver not in use
There is no reason to be rude here. I was not vague at all, i merely
made the assumption that you read the file you suggested other people
read in regards to re-enabling tap-clicking, which I stated did not work
for me.
No, I was not aware that it defaults to mac touchpad behavior, but
considering I am not using a mac touch pad, I am rather displeased that
it's behavior is being forced on me by default.
Yes, I am aware that there is no way to detect a "painted scrollbar" on
my touchpad, however, all laptops I've owned have had this painted
scrollbar, and up until now that area on the touchpad has worked as a
scroller. Granted, mentioning it was not very useful in any respect, but
it was first thing in the morning and I decided to mention it, though I
did so in parenthesis to suggest it was a personal note.
Considering no "official" has stepped in to decide whether or not this
is a bug, or just new behavior we are supposed to accept as the new
standard, I am going to continue treating it like a bug. If there is a
way to restore behavior, perhaps you could have mentioned it rather that
berate me after I pasted the corresponding information you asked me for?
I would think that more people are eventually going to notice this
behavior and wish to restore it, so sharing that information would be a
nice thing to do, especially for those of us, myself included, who
weren't aware that the behavior was completely "changed".
