Description Tobias Burnus 2005-08-09 22:00:30 UTC
I have a synaptics touchpad but I cannot activate in SaX2 the mouse wheel.
Furthermore, I cannot activate the 3-button emulation.
(They are all disabled.)

Expected:
- Option       "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
  can be set
- Option       "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
  is vertical scolling and should be settable.

(There is also horizontal scrolling via 6 7 mouse events, see man
/usr/share/man/man1/synaptics.5.gz.)

The vertical scrolling should probably enabled by default.

for synaptics and alps devices we enable scrolling and button emulation 
by default you don't need to do anything here :-). Currently there is 
no special configuration dialog for those devices handled via the 
X11 synaptics driver. That's the reason why the left group box is disabled 
... not a bug ;)

Hmm, then I have to find out why scrolling doesn't work here.
