I have got a synaptics touchpad on my dell laptop. I installed a driver
for it and it is working very well. However when I am scrolling using a
finger along the right edge of the touchpad it scrolls by skipping several
lines at a time. I think there is a way to make it scroll smoothly but I
don't know what to add to the xorg.conf file. The following relates to the
synaptics touchpad:

Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

Identifier "Synaptics Mouse"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
Option "LeftEdge" "1700"
Option "RightEdge" "5300"
Option "TopEdge" "1700"
Option "BottomEdge" "4200"
Option "FingerLow" "25"
Option "FingerHigh" "30"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.06"
Option "MaxSpeed" "0.12"
Option "AccelFactor" "0"
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
# Option "Repeater" "/dev/ps2mouse"

EndSection

Anyone else who has a synaptics touchpad and has dealt with this, could
you tell me how to re-edit this to make it scroll smoothly.
