Sure.

Are you sure?  At least I do not see much info on -o option in man page
nore /usr/share/doc/...  well, I now see README.synaptics.gz OK:-) 

But this document is confusing. What is "/usr/etc/gpm-syn.conf"?  I do
not see it on my system and I do not expect to create funny file under
/usr.

Considering 2.6 kernel being almost default and many people want to
disable tapping on synaptics, easy access to info will help user, I
think.

Thanks,

Osamu
