description |
a couple updates ago my synaptics touch pad just started pasting things that i never even copied whenever i reply on these forums or when im talking on gaim.. it just decides it wants to paste when i try to move the mouse pointer.. then when im reading a webpage and i move the mouse it just starts to highlight everything out of nowhere.. im not telling it to click, but it swears thats what im doing
so i tap the pad just to move the mouse and it pastes, or highlights.. when im goign though the menu's (applications places system) it selects the wrong program when i lift my finger and put it down again (after i reach the end of the touchpad and need to scroll further)
its driving me nuts, i even did a clean install and it still does it.. tried gsynaptics and when i tell it to disable tap click it still does it
ive tried max tap time=0 and that would work for awhile then the problems would still occur.. this is a very criplling problem that didnt happen early on in the dapper stage |
By default in Ubuntu the touchpad always detects taps. In other operating systems tap detection is disabled when users are typing. This is currently achieved using an insecure mechanism - a shared memory region. This shared memory region is disabled under Ubuntu because it is a possible security hole. The driver should be changed to allow tap detection to be controlled via the X protocol, which would allow this to be done securely, and would make it work correctly.
There is a workaround that can be used: setting MaxTapTime 0 in the xorg.conf. |

Intrepid has support for input properties, which means that you can configure the device during the session without any SHMConfig hacks. Closing as fixed. |
