Hi All, Update on this. I've just spent a painful couple of hours recompiling the kernel after I noticed that PS/2 support was not enabled. Probably a waste of time as the laptop doesn't have any PS/2 port on it (thanks a lot Sony!) Anyway, the upshot is: Touchpad moves not at all. I have a USB mouse as well that I plugged in, and that moves while KDE is loading, but as soon as it hits 100% and the Welcome splash screen comes up (which BTW cannot be disabled without a mouse :( ) then the pointer locks up solid. Sometimes it moves, but very sporadically, as if there is a delay of several seconds between my moving the mouse and the actual movement on the screen. BTW, anyone got any suggestions for the other three problems? :) Kind regards, Julian On Fri, 2004-06-11 at 20:00, Julian Hall wrote:
Hi Paul, Thanks for the advice. I edited the XFConfig86-4 as per the website, but now X won't start with the error: Unknown Protocol "auto-dev" I'm thinking evdev isn't in the perishing kernel. Would you agree that's the problem? BTW what Vaio do you have? I'm wondering if mine is older as, when I tried tpconfig it said "No Synaptic or ALPS devices found" and packed up in a sulk.
