I guess there are problems with patents/licenses e.g. from Apple and other OEMs
This is probably the same reasion why synaptics doesn't share their latest drivers on their website.

When i add one line to the regestry i can click both buttons and it will work as middlemousebutton
But everytime i install new drivers i have to add this line again :/


Thanks, I didn't know about that. Which registry key do you have to change?

Also, I have an EeePC and its touchpad allows these kinds of things. I think it uses an Elantech touchpad, and I guess they aren't patent encumbered. Has anyone ever tried these drivers on a Synaptic touchpad (like the one on a Dell Studio laptop?)...

Or maybe someone could mod the Synaptic drivers to include two-finger taps and whatnot... I've heard of other modded drivers for Synaptic, so I wonder how difficult it would be to add this..

Here are the v13.2.2.0 06/18/2009 drivers for Vista/W7. I noticed this version wasn't posted.

my eee 1001p had a factory settings problem under Win XP: it would not allow me to go to synaptic touchpad device settings, had to uninstall it and then reinstall the touchpad driver from asus eee website (ver. 13.2.6.1). This driver allows everything EXCEPT chiral motion.

Furthermore, newer versions of the driver from Synaptics website allow chiral scrolling but disabled two finger tapping (middle mouse) and three finger tapping that are essential to the touchpad functionality.

So I had to install back the eee driver 13.2.6.1 and then tweak the registry; to enable chiral scrolling, remove "visibility" in following windows registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Synaptics\SynTPCpl\Controls\2Scrolling\1One-Finger Scrolling\3Chiral

All multitouch features are now easily switchable in the touchpad properties > Device settings > settings. Awesome. Hopefully this helps people with similar problems.
