Bug Description

Binary package hint: ksynaptics

My synaptics touchpad worked great in Feisty. I don't like the default behavior so I use ksynaptics to manage the touchpad. In gutsy, with ksynaptics 0.3.3-2ubuntu1, xorg 1:7.2-3ubuntu3, and xorg-driver-fglrx 7.1.0-8.34.8+2.6.22.1-6.8 Maybe it's a problem with the xserver. I am using a patch for fglrx found here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22/+bug/115188
I don't think the patch would affect this, but I don't really know.

I have disabled tapping, but sometimes tapping still happens. The scroll area on the right covers 1/4 of the touchpad. The horizontal scroll doesn't work at all.
