As you have learned since last post, I'm tweaking on a new model eeepc, namely an H line-1005HA SeaShell, more subtle forms more homogeneous.
said get down to the reason of this article: Synaptic touchpad multitouch which is equipped with precisely this model, in win xp has no problems at all, that is already all set to zoom in / out, etc. but in linux ( precisely UNR 9.10) this feature does not work without some "help" you.
My situation was this: the scroll the pages (the emulation of the wheel so to speak) only works in extremes of the touchpad (as always) but the settings of the mouse, it was also possible to enable the "two-finger scrolling, a feature that, alas, did not work, then I'm stubborn and I managed to get this convenient option and also the right click with two fingers to tap.
We come then to the proceedings:
-
Create a file named "11-x11-synaptics.fdi" folder in "/ etc / hal / fdi / policy /" with " sudo gedit / etc / hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi "in the usual shell (if you use KDE instead of Gnome display manager instead of gedit we use our favorite text editor)
-
Copy the following into the file created in the preceding paragraph:
\u0026lt;? xml version = "1.0" encoding = "ISO-8859-1"?>
\u0026lt;deviceinfo version="0.2">
\u0026lt;device>
\u0026lt;match key = "info.capabilities" contains = "input.touchpad" >
\u0026lt;merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string"> synaptics \u0026lt;/ merge>
\u0026lt;merge key = "input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">On</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateTwoFingerMinZ" type="string">40</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.VertTwoFingerScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.HorizTwoFingerScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">3</merge> \u0026lt;! - Two finger tap -> middle click (3) ->
\u0026lt;merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string"> 2 \u0026lt;/ merge> \u0026lt;! - three finger tap -> right click (2). Almost impossible to click ->
\u0026lt;/ match>
\u0026lt;/ device>
\u0026lt;/ deviceinfo>
-
Save and Close.
-
Now type " synclient -m 100" to find out if SHM is active. If not follow this guide (In Italian, so I do not need to explain anything)
-
At this point we go into mouse settings and enable the "two-finger scrolling" and magically work, and together, even the right click with the tap 2 fingers.
If it still does not work, try rebooting your system.
I hope to be helpful and that this guide works for you, for I have done these steps and when I went to enable the feature worked and I think that would be enough to enable SHM to achieve the same result because by modifying the file created in step 1 does not change anything. If I'm wrong or leaving out something I would be very grateful if you did know me (here with a comment or email) while I thank you for reading this guide and I hope that you come back to visit the blog!
Now I'm trying to make other aspects and features of the multitouch zoom, using more than 2 fingers and so on. If I get to some results, will post for sure, then, wish me luck!
