I have Dell Latitude D600, 512MB/1.4 GHz/ATI Radeon 9000/Alps GlidePoint (might be only sold in EU). The problem is I _really_ dislike Alps GlidePoint (dual, pad and stick) tapping feature.
I am using Fedora core 1 (yarrow) with default Xfree86 shipped with it, and kernel 2.4.22-2135
I want to disable tapping from both stick and pad (or disable the pad)
I have tried almost every possible way to disable it(I have read most of tuxmobile stuff for D600).
tpconfig - I disable gpm, boot to runlevel 3 run manually "tpconfig --tapmode=0" it says ALPS tapping OFF, but when I start X tapping is still there, even using any existing mouse driver (PS/2, Alps).
Does "tpconfig --tapmode=0" only affect on stick ?
I also try synaptics touchpad driver for xfree86 (I had to compile it). but xfree will crash if driver not even loaded, only copied to /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input (not 100% sure) at least it will crash is it is loaded.
So I read more documentation and found out that when using synaptics driver with Alps glidepoint I should have 2.6 kernel to get events from this device.
So is there any way disable Alps tapping with current kernel (2.4.22-2135)?

I kinda like it actually. The Clit that is.

Not too sure how to do that. Could be possible from the XFree config. Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" <----?? Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection

I don't use synaptic nor ALPS at all. What I have is whatever is already in the kernel. I don't get the tapping for the clit. Only the Pad.
