@Israel,

xinput list-props "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" | grep Capabilities
	Synaptics Capabilities (320):	1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1

xinput list-props "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"

So.. can i temporary set up a new user 'testuser' and do some tests 
there without affecting my main user config
how do i make sure that my tests only affect the testuser account?

is it just a matter of putting that config in the /home of that user and 
make my changes there??

:-) synclient shows me that i'm getting closer.


synclient -l

looks like i need to find the correct config for these settings.

     CircularScrolling       = 0
     CircScrollDelta         = 0.1
     CircScrollTrigger       = 0
     CircularPad             = 0


Scrolling could also be nice as 'scrub-wheel' for audio sequensers, and 
video editors
CircularPad could be interesting for panning over an image in gimp

Can't beleive that nobody has explored this any deeper yet.

Thanks a bunch, i'm still a bit nervous about screwing this up.

i'll play with this tomorrow, and hope the CPU doesn't cook my leg.

For now i just like to see this scrollpad working, and would be cool if 
this would be working for ever Ubuntu user with this type of laptop. 
(All Lifebook S series)

I'll read this post again tomorrow, my brain is a bit fried at the 
moment. It looks like this should be simple but this evening the penny 
doesn't seem to drop. It could be a sunstitch...
