Some questions: - which kernel version (I'd say 2.6.something) - if so may you send the output of: cat /proc/bus/input/devices ls -l /dev/input/event* [...] > (II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 0.13.6 > TouchPad no synaptics event device found (checked 2 nodes) [...] If my suspects are correct you probably need to create more device nodes in /dev/input (see man MAKEDEV or ask me again) The log says in fact that only 2 nodes have been scanned while probably your touchpad is bound to a missing node (I have it in /dev/input/event5 for example). Debian doesn't create so many event nodes by default. -- mattia :wq! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
