Pavilion dv6-3225dx under F14 -- mouse problems

[Paul Allen Newell]

Hello to all:

I have a HP Pavilion dv6-3225dx that was installed with Win7 and I am 
trying to dual-boot with F14. I've managed to do that, but I am seeing 
totally wacko action out of the mouse (which is a touchpad with a 
movement area and two "buttons" below"). The long and short of it is 
two-fold

1) the right mouse button seems to be non-existent and, if there is a 
left-mouse action to be had, it mirrors that. But for things that have a 
distinct right-mouse action (setting the number of workspaces or pinning 
the terminal to the upper toolbar), it doesn't see them

2) even though I have disabled scrolling on the touchpad, if I put two 
fingers on the touchpad, it goes shooting all over the place (detailed 
exam indicates it is getting a continuous y change and I can't figure 
out what the x is doing)

I googled the machines and didn't see anything above and beyond hp not 
having any drivers other than Win7. I looked into firmware under fedora 
and didn't see anything for touchpads. When I did the initial install, 
F14 barked about needing a firmware update, but that vanished once I did 
a yum update.

I am not seeing any other problems with the install, but can't test too 
far with a mouse that seems to like 
"pick-drug-of-your-choice-so-long-as-it-is-an-upper"

Suggestions? ... I would hate to have to give up on a Fedora capability 
for this machine as I want to do a dual-boot so I can eventually move to 
"dumping" Windows.

Thanks in advance,
Paul
