You have been subscribed to a public bug: Clickpads are a part of a wide range of professional Lenovo Thinkpad machines. The touchpads/clickpads on these laptops do not work well with the synaptics driver version 1.7.x. Since the 14.04 is an LTS version, I do not plan to upgrade to 14.10. I imagine many users of the Lenovo Thinkpad line are in a similar situation.
Since version 1.8.x fixes a lot of these issues, see commit here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input- synaptics/tag/?id=xf86-input-synaptics-1.8.1 and blog post here: http://who-t.blogspot.de/2014/03/xorg-synaptics-support-for- lenovo-t440.html Please offer 1.8.x as backported package in 14.04. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Status: Incomplete -- Backport xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.8.1 to 14.04 LTS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1380218 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
