 Hi all; Just recieved my G1G1 XO which is very cool. However the touchpad
 only works in the up/down axis albeit a little herky-jerky. Not well at
 all in the left/right axis, only zooming from one to the other while
 intermittently stopping along the way.

 I've tried the de-power and four-finger salute as suggested by the folks
 at support at laptop.org but no joy. If it was consistentl in its badness i'd
 be more inclined to suspect the h/w but since the behavior varies somewhat
 after the attempted fixes i'm inclined to believe in s/w voodoo.

 The service at laptopgiving.org folks replied that they'd recieved 3 or so
 similar complaints but directed me to the laptop.org folks who have now
 directed me here.

 Any thoughts?
