[Bug 480717] [NEW] syndaemon doesn't accept device name option

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

Since SHMConfig option is not needed, there is no way to set the right target device for syndaemon when there are two touchpads or more.
This is a patch for syndaemon to add a -n option for the device name

I suppose that the same thing could be done for synclient.
