    Hi,

    My laptop has a Synaptics Touchpad and it worked fine with FC1, i.e. a
    tapping on the pad was recognized as a left click, and with a double
    tapping I could perform a drag.

    But after I upgraded to FC2, the system doesn't recognize tapping at all.
    Any tapping is just ignored, though I can still control the cursor
    position by the touchpad.

    Does any one have similar trouble or any suggestion ?

    My laptop is Panasonic CF-T2: CPU Centrino 1GHz, Memory 768MB.
    I also use a Logitech usb mouse as a pointer device.

    The following lines are excerpts from dmesg and xorg.conf which (I
    think) are related to this issue.

    Thanks in advance, Yoichi.
