[Bug 380126] Re: [Karmic] Touchpad not recognised correctly, synaptics driver not in use

 

> ... however, as I stated previously.. using those options found in the
news file didn't allow touch clicking, and my scroll is broken too
(there's a designated area on the right of the touchpad for it). It
seems to me, that while it is detecting it, it's not applying the proper
driver for it. Strange thing is, I've never had this issue in any
previous distro of Kubuntu.

Could you please be less vague?
Are you aware the default configuration has changed to Mac touchpad behaviour?
Are you aware Mac touch scrolling doesn't have a dedicated area but instead use the "2 fingers" method?
Are you aware there's no way for the driver to detect if your vendor painted a "scrollbar" on your touchpad?
If you are having problems using the tools (synclient or gpointing-device-settings) to restore the old default configuration, could you please include a detailed description of what is failing? (ie. what did you do? what happened? what did you expect to happen?)

Maybe this discussion should all be taken to a forum somewhere instead
of being discussed here?!

I'm going to unsubscribe for now. Feel free to contact me directly via
email if anyone needs assistance, but if you do make sure to back up
your statements with proof, do *not* jump to conclusions and clearly
mark your *guesses* as such.
