I Installed the latest firefox on my Acer Aspire 1692 dual boot Win XP / SuSE Linux 10.0.
The problem is when I move my finger to the left/upper corner of the pad the previous page reappears.
I assure you it's pretty annoying.
Is it possible to disable this function?
It's only doing it in Firefox, in all other applications it's working fine.
Maybe somebody can help me,:(
thanx
Good news, that's a Synaptics touchpad, which has a good driver for Xorg with lots of configurable options.
To turn off the top-left corner "button," open your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find the InputDevice section for the touchpad (it will have the "synaptics" driver listed), and add this line:
There are plenty of other options you can set to get the touchpad working really nicely. See this page for a sample xorg.conf that another guy used for the same laptop.Code:Option "LTCornerButton" "0"
For kicks, here's the InputDevice section that I use with my touchpad:
Setting MaxTapTime to 0 disables the tap-to-click feature, which is probably why I haven't noticed the corner clicking annoyances.Code:Section "InputDevice"
