[Nix-dev] synaptics touchpad configuration question

[Brandon Barker]

Thanks for the tip; interestingly (and possibly unfortunately) the Xorg
config matches configuration.nix:

cat /nix/store/i1r98qyqppn3yzs1k927hp6z3351rc6n-xserver.conf | grep RB
  Option "RBCornerButton" "3"


# Automatically enable the synaptics driver for all touchpads.
Section "InputClass"
  Identifier "synaptics touchpad catchall"
  MatchIsTouchpad "on"

  Driver "synaptics"
  Option "MinSpeed" "0.6"
  Option "MaxSpeed" "1.0"
  Option "AccelFactor" "0.001"
  Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "TapButton1" "1"
Option "TapButton2" "2"
Option "TapButton3" "3"

  Option "ClickFinger1" "1"
  Option "ClickFinger2" "2"
  Option "ClickFinger3" "3"
  Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "0"
  Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "0"
  Option "VertEdgeScroll" "1"


  Option "RBCornerButton" "3"
