Has anyone used this on Debian with absolutely no issues? My understanding is that gpointing-device-settings has a plugin for gnome settings daemon
Interesting settings can be found with gconf-editor at /apps/gnome/peripherals . The priority for loading plugins is found at /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/pointing-device and also in the keys of other plugins. It seems that gpointing-device-settings stores settings in a way that conflicts with gnome's regular configuration, ie. it uses different keys to store the same settings, or it stores a setting in a way that affects many other gnome-native settings. gpointing-device settings stores settings in /desktop/gnome/peripherals/sy...@47@2...@32@synapt...@32@TouchPad , while gnome stores them at /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad . I suppose it becomes a little complicated with the trackpoint, since gnome probably sees it as just another mouse. Maybe we should play with the priority of these gnome-settings-daemon plugins. -- Settings of gpointing-device-settings are non-persistent https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/489830 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
