Yannis,
I have a Sony VGN-TX650P. I don't know if yours will act the same or
not, but I had to change my xorg.conf (in /etc/X11) to get my touchpad
working correctly.
I added the following section:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "AlwaysCore"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2"
Option "Protocol" "event"
Option "LeftEdge" "130"
Option "RightEdge" "840"
Option "TopEdge" "130"
Option "BottomEdge" "640"
Option "FingerLow" "7"
Option "FingerHigh" "8"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "110"
Option "ClickTime" "0"
Option "EmulateMidButtonTime" "75"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "10"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "10"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.60"
Option "MaxSpeed" "1.10"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.030"
Option "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "200"
Option "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "200"
Option "UpDownScrolling" "1"
Option "CircularScrolling" "1"
Option "CircScrollDelta" "0.1"
Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection
And commented out:
#Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
# Driver "synaptics"
# Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
# Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
# Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
# Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0"
#EndSection
I'm not certain what it all means, but the touchpad works much better
now. I believe that I first found this on the web forums. From what
I've read, MinSpeed, MaxSpeed, and AccelFactor are the important options
for fixing the speed. I haven't bothered to try to remove or adjust any
of the options since it works pretty well right now.
HTH,
