Public bug reported: I have a new HP Pavilion Split X2. The system recognizes the existence of the touchpad, in that I can use it, but it doesnt' give me any touchpad features (most specifically, I really want to be able to turn it off while typing so that my palm isn't making me skip all around all the time.
This is a fresh install of 14.04, fully up to date. xinput list ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ELAN Touchscreen id=9 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ SynapticsTouch Pad V 1.03U3 id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP TrueVision Full HD id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP Wireless hotkeys id=13 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ HP WMI hotkeys Trying to use synclient in any way gives me: "Couldn't find synaptics properties.
