Bug Fixes

   pressed (on a Dual-Pointing machine) option would not show up in the

Version  8.3.4 05/19/2006 (Win9x&ME/WinNT/Win2K/WinXP)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bug Fixes

   in this INF file is to set KeyboardController=1. 
  -Updated the Diagnostics page (secret page) to show the string
   "Generic Legacy" for KeyboardController = 1 instead of "Unknown". 
  -Changed the KeyboardController setting for Unknown to GenericLegacy
   and added a new NonMux type. Now, if the Diagnostics page shows
   Unknown for the Keyboard Controller type it will really indicate
   that the KeyboardController was not identified. Before, Unknown
   could have meant either it was not identified OR that we didn't
   even try to identify it.

   to reflect the changes to the settings. 
  -Modified OEM customer ini and INF file settings to use resource IDs in
   place of hard coded numbers.

   disable taps from the TouchPad tray icon pop-up menu when there is also

  -Added a Styk icon for systems that only have a Styk and created an
   .ini file to turn it on. 
  -Added an information line giving the PS/2 Passthrough capability of the
   selected device on the Device status tab in the Diagnostics page (secret
   page).

   a separate resource DLL. 
  -Modified our INF build process to use resource IDs in place of numbers 
   in our Control panel controls ini file. 
  -Removed the AutoRecalibration setting from a customers INF file since we
   don't see any reason for it being applied to all platforms. If they need
   it added for a specific platform we can add it back for that platform.
