xorg.conf

Installed clean 11.0 on Dell Latitude D630 (Alps touchpad) and it's default
setup is basically unusable, I need to take special care to touch it the way
to produce any movement (not sure which setting it is), side scrolling also
does not work.

I got the same problem on my Latitude D520,

At first the touchpad works, but clearly unusable.. The area in wich my horizontal scroll reacts is to big.

The circular scroll thing.. Makes it even worse.. And no vertical scroll. What ever I do.. I can not get my vert-scroll to work.

I posted the following fix at the opensuse forums:

http://forums.opensuse.org/hardware/laptop/386687-touchpad-troubles-dell-latitude-d520-opensuse-11-0-a.html#post1822863

I guess the main issue I had with my Vertical Scroll not working was the RightEdge part of xorg.conf was set to high.

Fixed in SVN, Factory and openSUSE build service, project SaX2.

sax2.changes:

- reverted r1619, which broke the VerticalScroll support for a lot
  of ALPS touchpads (bnc #401661)
- added alps-macbook profile and use it for Macbook ALPS touchpad 
  (bnc #250427)

Just a note that the SaX2 project has no 11.0 repository.
Comment 8 Stefan Dirsch 2008-06-27 16:44:24 UTC
Thanks. Fixed now. Will take some time once the packages have been built.
