     I can't find such a thing on BIOS

@Po-Hsu Lin (cypressyew)

  Indeed, when I am touching on the right-bottom corner (near the limits of touchpad area) of my touchpad shows me the menu of right click.. I could say that is not so user friendly, because the area that i have to tap is very small and works 7/10 times...
  When I press the left button with a pen, left click is working. Or did you mean touching with a pen? Definitely is not doing anything...
  Concernig about  bug 1188025, (with a quick look) as far I understood this was fixed on kernel 3.13.0-35.62 which I think that is the default kernel on Linux Mint 17, which I have installed on my laptop, but on this kernel my touchpad is not recognised at all. Only on latest kernels is recognised. Now I am using Linux Kernel 3.18.7-031807-generic
