    Hello,
      I have installed Fedora core2 on a Compaq presario 900. The touchpad
    is a synaptics touch pad. The mouse properties in Win XP shows the
    name of the device as 'Synaptics PS/2 Port touchpad'.
      The problem is on both text terminals as well as X-Windows - I can't
    select text which can be done with gpm I guess nor can I double tap in
    X-Windows (Gnome) to select or click a button or close a window the
    way it is possible in Windows XP.

      Any help/advice please.

    Thank you,
    regards,
    Prasad
