[Bug 1439608] Re: [Dell Inspiron 7347] Cannot select multiple file by click and drag with two fingers

 

@Po-Hsu, can you try the following:

  (1) cat /proc/bus/input/devices to find the sysfs path of the clickpad node.
  (2) ls that node and check the event number of it
  (3) install evtest package and run `evtest /dev/input/eventX` X is the number from (2)

please post the result back here.

Title:
  [Dell Inspiron 7347] Cannot select multiple file by click and drag
  with two fingers

Status in HWE Next Project:
  Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  CID: 201406-15234 Dell Inspiron 7347

  User cannot do the "click and drag" on the clickpad with more than one
  finger on 14.04.2 (3.16 kernel)

  Steps:
  1. Open your home directory.
  2. Press the clickpad with one finger, and move the cursor across several files with another finger
  3. Put a finger on the clickpad and try to move the cursor across several files after click on the clickpad with another hand.

  Expected results:
  * You should be able to select multiple files

  Actual result:
  * Cursor won't move, you can't select multiple files with step 2 or 3, the only way to do this selection is to press the clickpad with one finger and move the cursor with it (or do a double tap and hold)

  BTW, I'm not sure if it's a by-design feature.
