Touchpad not working after login
Last modified: 2008-11-29 17:34:31 UTC
In gdm, my touchpad works fine. Then, when I log in, it doesn't work anymore. My guess is that gsynaptics-init (which is in the autostart config) breaks stuff. Note that my gsynaptics config tells me that the touchpad should be enabled.
I ran into the same issue and could only workaround it by rpm -e gsynaptics. Is bug 402864 related?
A less intrusive workaround is deleting ~/desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/%gconf.xml .
