Description Alexander Lavrinenko 2009-03-10 07:30:51 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; X11; ru) KHTML/3.5.10 (like Gecko) SUSE

A couple factory updates ago my synaptics touchpad's scroll zone stopped working in X, it works only as touchpad area, but not as scroll area. xorg.conf didn't change a bit. I can't tell for sure whether this is due to kernel update (2.6.28 -> 2.6.29-rcX) or xorg update, they both happened at the same time.

Reproducible: Always

This is still xorg-server 1.5.2, i.e openSUSE 11.1.

Configuration and detection looks fine. What's the output of 'synclient -l'?

Can't access shared memory area. SHMConfig disabled?

Comment 8 Stefan Dirsch 2009-03-10 10:57:21 UTC

Seems you have a weird mixup of xorg-x11-server and xorg-x11-driver-input packages on your system. I suggest to either update to  all packages from X11:XOrg
or go back to openSUSE 11.1 completely.

or X11:XOrg < 2009-02-27 (xorg-server 1.52/synaptics 1.0.0)

Currently my system is 11.2 alpha, except xorg rpms due to bug 483424. Right now my system's xorg is from factory as well (there are several versions in factory available):

Comment 11 Stefan Dirsch 2009-03-10 11:52:41 UTC

Apparently you can't use latest X11:XOrg RPMs due to video driver bugs. Anyway, I'm rather sure this issue has been fixed in latest X11:XOrg/ xorg-x11-driver-input.

- xf86-input-synaptics 1.0.99.2 
[...]
- xf86-input-synaptics-settings.diff
  * enables tapping
  * enables vertical scrolling
  * fixed typo (vertScrollDelta <--> horizScrollDelta)

As workaround add

  Option "VertEdgeScroll" "1"

to the synaptics driver section of your xorg.conf.
