Comment 11 for bug 220143

I reinstalled Gutsy on partition #2 of machine #2
Machine #2 is:
Dell D610 refer to "Configuation logs from crashed system" for lspci -vvnn, configuration, etc.

I left partition #2 of machine #2 in the default Gutsy configuration and upgraded to Hardy today without problem.

I do modify my xorg.conf file because my touchpad is too sluggish.
This is the mod:
        Option "MinSpeed" "1"

Here is the appropriate section of the xorg.conf file:

Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
 Driver "synaptics"
 Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
 Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
 Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
 Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "0"
        Option "MinSpeed" "1"

This mod was applied to the old partition #2 before the aborted upgrade.
It was applied to the new partition #2 after installing Hardy this time.

I included this in case it might be relevant.

I filed a typical Hardware Testing report that notes the need for this mod.
