| |
Hi Dmitry,
I just got a shiny new piece of hardware (HP Envy 15) with a Synaptics touchpad, and I can't seem to make the touchpad work correctly. In this version of the touchpad, there are actually two physical buttons underneath the pad. In essence, this is a touchpad that you can click too.
I can't get the clicking to work. Of course, I can tap to click, but lacking access to the physical buttons means that I can't right-click.
Currently, I'm not sure if this is a driver issue or perhaps something higher up the stack, perhaps in X or maybe pilot error. ;)
Distro is Ubuntu Karmic, kernel is latest upstream last pulled on 13 Dec.
Would like some pointers on how to get started debugging.
Thanks, /ac
