Re: [Bug 1035547] Re: Trackpad not recognized on Perixx Multiboard-716 wireless keyboard w/trackpad

 

Hi Christopher,

I gave this machine away a few months ago, and have since moved to a
different region, so I'm unable to verify BIOS or provide more details at
this time. Alas!

Thanks,
Alex

Title:
  [HP Pavilion a805n] Trackpad not recognized on Perixx Multiboard-716
  wireless keyboard w/trackpad

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Recently purchased a wireless keyboard with built-in touchpad
  (PERIBOARD-716 mfg'd by Perixx). Touchpad has proper mouse
  functionality, but no touchpad-specific features are available (multi-
  finger scrolling, etc.). In fact, it appears that it's not even
  recognized by the kernel as a trackpad.

  I'm reporting this bug as suggested at:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection#In_case_Touchpad_features_like_scrolling.2C_tapping.2C_etc_do_not_work_at_all.

  I suspect this may be a kernel issue (as cat /proc/bus/input/device
  yields nothing specific to the touchpad, and the Mouse control panel
  doesn't show a Trackpad tab), but am reporting it here as the wiki
  page suggested, as I'm not totally sure this is a kernel issue.

  Although I'm running Lucid (lacks true multitouch support), I was
  hoping to use a workaround to at least get two finger scrolling. No
  dice, it seems.

  Attached: output of
     cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
     xinput --list
     cat /proc/bus/input/devices

  Thx
