[Bug 1371786] Re: [Fujitsu CELSIUS H730] Touchpad doesn't work unless middle-click is constantly pressed on an Elantech touchpad

 

Thanks for your follow-up, Christopher.

I've sent off a mail to the list that I hope conforms with the
requirements, per your link.

Here's a link to an archived version (spinics seems slow):

Title:
  [Fujitsu CELSIUS H730] Touchpad doesn't work unless middle-click is
  constantly pressed on an Elantech touchpad

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Issue: Using a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.10, I discovered that the
  touchpad did not work.

  Steps to reproduce: Install Ubuntu 14.10 on a Fujitsu H730 and attempt
  to use the touchpad.

  Further description: Due to the comments in bug #1300427 I've tested
  the mainline kernel version 3.17-rc5-utopic, and the only impact I
  recall was how the right-click button now also worked while pressing
  middle-click on the touchpad.

  WORKAROUND: Remove and load psmouse with proto=exps.

  After this, a bit further in time, I accidentally managed to click
  with the touchpad. It appears that the touchpad strangely enough works
  quite well as long as I hold down the middle click button. While
  holding it down, the touchpad seems to work rather well - including
  multitouch features. The joy is short, as it registers no input while
  depressed.
