overly smart touchpad

#1 Post by boof »

puppy Tahr 6.0.2 and last Dlacko versions on HP R040 laptop.

Is the Touchpad trying to act as a touchscreen? If this is true then please prevent it. If I wanted touchscreen I would have bought it. I'm getting fast fed up with the cursor jumping about in my txt pages just because my hand is near the touchpad. I don't want a pc that thinks for itself, I want it to do AS TOLD! KISS please!!!! Touchpad ==mouse only pls.

menu>>desktop>>Flsynclient

disable the options you don't want in either 'tapping' or 'scrolling'
