    Is it just me or does this new driver improve the touchpad scrolling as well. It seems to work a lot smoother for me. :D

    Unfortunately not working on Vista :(
    The only driver that I've got to work correctly is the latest genuine synaptics. Every other one hangs when using the scroll feature and requires a reboot . :?

    Could someone upload the driver elsewhere, or give an alternate download location. It keeps freezing on me...

    Does anyone know if there's a way to configure the pinch settings to make it so that instead of zooming, I could resize windows (like the eeepc)? I've also seen the EeePC capable of rotating images, is it possible for the AA1's touchpad to do that?
    I'm sure it's all reliant on the software... so it's just a matter of time till someone tweaks it for the AA1.

    I can confirm the multitouch is not just a hardware feature of the A150s, my A110 (linux ssd) running windows (badly) does multitouch just as well.

    Thing is I've been using multitouch on linux on an older laptop for literally years, and I still can't figure out how to get it to work on Linpus (or any other OS for that matter).

    Stay tuned though, I'll get it eventually and put up a howto

    I just got the AA1 today, and this is the driver that comes with the XP 120g version.

    Pinch works for Firefox to zoom in/out, but in other apps like Google Earth, Photoshop, Lightroom it pans. Any idea how to set other apps to zoom as well? It might be an issue with the respective apps though I've seen other laptops running Google Earth and pinch zooming.
