At this time we have prepared the kernel, installed the Synaptics driver in the form of synaptics_drv.o this module and the X server made public. The last step is that the X server loads the Synaptics driver for the touchpad. For this we need to change the configuration file. Depending on which X server to use (the old XFree or Xorg) I open the file with an editor or XFConfig xorg.conf. It is important that the name of the identifier (identifier "Mouse1") maintains. In addition, you must still check the ServerLayout section and declare where the touchpad as a core pointer:
Code:
X-SERVER ADAPT (ServerLayout)
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Screen "Screen 1"
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
Important: You cannot use more than ONE "CorePointer". So if you want to use an external mouse, all you have to "mouse input devices" other than a change from "CorePointer" to "Always Core".
