The question is whether it's unusable, so far everyone got used to it quite quickly :) that doesn't mean we don't want to address any real issues (e.g. the x230 has a custom accel method because of the broken touchpad). so if you think there are continuous accel issues, we can see how we can work those out.

Is this expected/configurable? yeah, the reason is the multi-drag feature (or whatever you want to call it). you can lift the finger and set it back down during a drag process to keep dragging across more than one touchpad width. that requires a timeout though which is what you're seeing. The easiest way to avoid the timeout is to tap again to release (<a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED FIXED - Enable tapping to end drag" href="show_bug.cgi?id=90255">Bug 90255</a>) which is only on git master at this point though.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
