Hey,
I've found a bug in 2.6.11.6. I have a Toshiba laptop and when i did run 2.6.11.6 my touchpad flipped out, it clicked everywhere when it wasn't supposed to click. I couldn't even move my mouse without it was clicking all over. It works fine i 2.6.10 though. Is there any changes made that can affect this? (I haven't tried 2.6.11.7 yet...)

Best regards,
Amelia Nilsson

2.6.11.7 has no significant changes that should effect your touchpad.
We'll need much more information to make any headway here (see
REPORTING-BUGS).  I've got a Toshiba laptop, and have no issues with the
touchpad.  I assume this is an issue in just in X.  Do you see any obvious
difference in the Xorg.0.log when starting X on the two different kernels?
Any interesting dmesg output on the failing kernel?  Does booting with
psmouse.proto=exps help (assuming you have CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y)?

thanks,
