Synaptics TouchPad driver for X.Org server

Description

This package provides an input driver for the X.Org X server to enable advanced features of the Synaptics Touchpad including:

* Movement with adjustable, non-linear acceleration and speed

* Button events through short touching of the touchpad

* Double-Button events through double short touching of the touchpad

* Dragging through short touching and holding down the finger on the touchpad

* Middle and right button events on the upper and lower corner of the touchpad

* Vertical scrolling (button four and five events) through moving the finger

on the right side of the touchpad

* The up/down button sends button four/five events

* Horizontal scrolling (button six and seven events) through moving the finger

on the lower side of the touchpad

* The multi-buttons send button four/five events, and six/seven events for

horizontal scrolling

* Adjustable finger detection

* Multifinger taps: two finger for middle button and three finger for right

button events. (Needs hardware support. Not all models implement this

feature.)

* Run-time configuration using shared memory. This means you can change

parameter settings without restarting the X server (see synclient(1)).

* It also provides a daemon to disable touchpad while typing at the keyboard

and thus avoid unwanted mouse movements (see syndaemon(1)).
