Hi,
I have a simple proof of concept script for controlling the Sentelic touchpad, attached it
if it is usefull to someone.
In principle it allows me to turn on/off the whole device or particular features
such as vertical/horizontal scroll or tap-click - and thus making the device much
more tolerable.
It has somewhat nasty preconditions: requires either root privs for the scroll/click
control
or Xserver access for enabling/disabling :( So I am not sure how it could be intergated
into
the desktop.
Another interesting thing I found is "evdaemon" -
http://codegrove.org/evdaemon/, did
not try it yet but looks like it could do everything what syndaemon can do and a few other
interesting things without beeing limitted to any particular device.
