Averatec touchpad

[rcengland]

Sounded like a great idea but it didn't work. My touchpad did not work with the live cd. Anymore ideas?

The following ports may help:
x11/libsynaptics - Library to access the Xorg/XFree86 Synaptics TouchPad Driver
x11-servers/synaptics - The Synaptics touchpad X driver

[rcengland]

I do not have a touchpad device to check this with, however it is offered in hope that it helps. Check your XF86Config file for the following:

Code:

Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Touchpad" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "LeftEdge" "1700" Option "RightEdge" "5300" Option "TopEdge" "1700" Option "BottomEdge" "4200" Option "FingerLow" "25" Option "FingerHigh" "30" Option "MaxTapTime" "180" Option "MaxTapMove" "220" Option "VertScrollDelta" "100" Option "MinSpeed" "0.06" Option "MaxSpeed" "0.12" Option "AccelFactor" "0.0010" Option "SHMConfig" "on" Option "Repeater" "/dev/input/mice" EndSection

No guarantee on this since I have no hardware to test with.

I don't have the following:
/dev/psaux
/dev/input/mice

DrgnLord, do you think the posts above could work?

I am going to plug in a Knoppix cd to see if my touchpad still works. I believe I have used it in Knoppix before.

Knoppix could find my touchpad.  In the xorg.conf was the above.  Do you think any of that may work for the touchpad on PCBSD?

I loaded up the lastest version of Frenzy, a new BSD live cd, and the touchpad works. Is their anyway to copy the configuration file from Frenzy into PC-BSD? It is just a suggestion.

[DragnLord]

The "usb mouse" section is for just that, a usb mouse.

There should be another section for the touchpad.

I had the same problem.

I disabled usb legacy support in my bios to get it working.

The following information is from Frenzy's xorg.conf file. Do you see anything that I could use?
