[Bug 762768] Re: cannot select text with left click with touchpad

 

Hi Chase,

thanks for working on that problem.

Looking on the Synaptic website
(http://www.synaptics.com/solutions/products/clickpad), i think my
Pavilion dv7-4011eg has a clickpad.

Setting AreaBottomEdge=4331 seems to work good.

It is not necessary to change JumpyCursorThreshold.

A entry in 51-synaptics-quirks.conf would be a fine solution.

May i helps you to know some more data:
from XorgLog.txt:
(--) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: x-axis range 1472 - 5672
(--) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: y-axis range 1408 - 4550
from synclient:
LeftEdge = 1766
RightEdge = 5378
TopEdge = 1627
BottomEdge = 4331

i find these values not really logical: start at 1472 ??
what happens between 4331 and 4550. to my mind the pad works on its borders?

greetings 
reinhard
