EeePC 1000 touchpad sensitivity
« on: April 11, 2010, 10:49:57 PM »
I love the way TC 2.10 works on my ASUS EeePC 1000, except for one thing... the touchpad is way too sensitive to tapping.  Actually, I get a lot of accidental tap reactions while I'm typing, and I don't think I actually touch the touchpad surface.  In the Fedora installation I also use on the EeePC, there is a .fdi file that adjusts the various touchpad settings to more reasonable values, and I don't get as much accidental tap events.  Is there a way to adjust things in TC with the standars Xvesa setup (I don't have the full Xorg installed right now).  Thanks for any suggestions!

There's certainly a way to do this using Xorg - when using Xvesa, I choose the mouse input so as to disable the touchpad completely, but this only works if you have a pointing stick, alternate mouse, etc

Thanks Juanito.  I'm going to repost in the Netbook subforum to see if anyone knows something specific to these EeePC machines.
