    Greetings,
    I have the following quirk with the touchpad:
    - It doesn't work on start, it activates itself once connected to the network
    - Tapping doesn't work (left/right mouse buttons OK)

    Has anyone seen this ?
    If possible, can someone post the default xorg.conf section & the contents of ~/.gsynaptics/syn.conf ?
    I may have messed a setting, or gsynaptics has.

    Thanks.

    Strange, it seems to be recreated on my system each time I run gsynaptics.

    Could you also post the output of
    Code:
    synclient -l
    (that's a lowercase L). You may want to redirect it first
    Code:
    synclient -l > my_current_synaptics_values.txt
    Thanks !
