touchpad
as an alternative method of pressing the left button will no longer be
valid.
Configuring the Touchpad
You may want to configure the touchpad to suit your needs. For
example, if you are a left-handed user, you can swap the two
buttons so that you can use the right button as the left button and
vise versa. You can also change the size of the on-screen pointer,
the speed of the pointer, and so on.
To configure the touchpad, you can use the standard Microsoft or
IBM PS/2 driver if you are using Windows. However, you can
install the touchpad driver supplied with your computer to take
advantage of more powerful features. (For information on
installing the driver, see “How to Use the CD” in Chapter 6.)
