MacBook Pro 4,1. Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10.
I am customising my fdi settings. When I compare the output of synclient -l and Device Manager I get different values for some options.
eg 1. CircScrollTrigger: DM says 1 (the value I put in my fdi file) and synclient -l says 8. synclient is right in that '8' (AKA top-left-corner) is in-force.
eg 2. BottomEdge: DM says 720 (the value I set in my fdi file) as does synclient -l
Thinking that HAL may be processing the package fdi file:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-x11-synaptics.fdi
and my file:
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/21-x11-bcm5974-pc.fdi
I set the prefix to '21'
My file validates against the DTD and /usr/src/bcm5974-1.1.1/scripts/bcm5974-diagnostics says that all is good.
I have syslog'ing turned on and no fdi errors are logged.
Now, if I manually set the options with synclient Option=value I get the behaviour I am looking for.
So, any suggestions?
