hey guys
Im new to fedora

I've been using ubuntu for about two years
my inspiron laptop has a problem with the touchpad
if fails to regester some of the taps
this issue exists only in linux, in all distros
while in windows it works perfectly
on ubuntu I used to solve the problem by modifying and recompiling the synaptics driver
this how I fix it on ubuntu
Code:
1. apt-get source xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
2. sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
3- modify the file in the home folder/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-1.2.2/src/synaptics.c
4. save & close the file
5. sudo dpkg-buildpackage
I don't know how to do it in fedora

when I tried yum install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
it says no package
if anyone can help me I would be thankfull
