Unfortunately, the raw incoming data seems to be correctly transferred to the user space, and indeed, the X and Y do not change at each report. I tried looking into the various configuration options that can control the touchpad without much success. One last thing which worries me a little bit is the statement in page 22 of the Synaptics PS/2 interfacing guide 11-000275-01 Rev B: "The Synaptics Windows drivers operate the pad in Absolute mode. They use advanced algorithms to transform the absolute (X, Y, Z) data into smooth relative cursor motion" >From what I can tell, this is worked around in software by Windows.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
