Hey archimedes, i have found the solution for the touchpad problem.

I have written it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4308913
For the others, the process is this:
Edit file /etc/X11/xorg.conf

change the Synaptics Touchpad section with this one:
Code:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Alps Touchpad"
        Driver          "synaptics"
        Option          "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/event4"
        Option          "Protocol"              "event"
        Option          "HorizEdgeScroll"       "0"
        Option          "MinSpeed"              "0.50"
        Option          "MaxSpeed"              "0.80"
        Option          "AccelFactor"           "0.030"
        Option          "SHMConfig"             "on"
EndSection
And don't forget that you have to change also section "ServerLayout":
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier      "Default Layout"
  screen 0 "Default Screen" 0 0
        Inputdevice     "Generic Keyboard"
        Inputdevice     "Configured Mouse"
        Inputdevice     "Alps Touchpad"
EndSection
this help i found on
http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/11/...aptics-driver/
other help is here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...3&postcount=50
