Hi Folks
	I.m trying to install FC6 onto my new HP510 note book and have run into
a few problems. I will post them as seperate posts as I don't think they
are related. I can't get the Synaptics touch pad to work at all. I'm a
KDE user so I'm having to carry around a usb mouse. On my other FC6 box
I have a "hardware" program in the "administration" section of the
kmenu, which seems to be missing. When I shut the note book down I get a
error message / backtrace from the Synaptics program crashing. This is
the message:

I had a look into my xorg.conf file and there is an input section for
the keyboard but non for a mouse. Here is my xorg.conf file:


# Xorg configuration created by pyxf86config

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier     "Default Layout"
	Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
	InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

	Option	    "AllowMouseOpenFail" "yes"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier  "Keyboard0"
	Driver      "kbd"
	Option	    "XkbModel" "pc105"
	Option	    "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier  "Videocard0"
	Driver      "i810"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen0"

	DefaultDepth     24

EndSection


Any ideas?
