I updated my laptop from fc8 to fc9. Due to dependencies, I had to remove gnome-panel. I reinstalled gnome-panel and all the other stuff that was removed, but apparently, I missed something.
My touch pad continues to work as a mouse, however, I cannot use the mouse pad as an enter key. I cannot double-click on the mouse pad as a select tool.
Can anyone tell me where/how this is controlled in gnome? Is there some "manager" I need installed which might have been inadvertantly deleted?
Thanks,
Jim

gsynaptic for GNOME. I'd guess ksynaptic for KDE.
synclient is a command-line one.
To use any of these, you need to preconfigure xorg.conf with the SHMConfig line in the InputDevice section.

Sorry, that's gsynaptics and ksynaptics (ending in 's'). ++++
there is no post that problem was cured, but entire thread does give info to check your xorg.conf and sample configs.
so, i would say check fedora site for bug and have a look at entire thread. or sit and wait to see if any of previous poster note your post and reply.
also, i you like, i can send you entire of thread that i have.
