Mostly same here on my HP Mini 311. However my device isn't even recognized as a touchpad; it's recognized as a generic mouse, thus there's no "Touchpad" tab in mouse preferences. When I try to activate syndaemon it says that there's no synaptics device found, so there's no way to disable tapping while typing... highly annoying.
Will attach my relevant files since my circumstance seems slightly different from above. ** Attachment added: "dmesg output, devices output, Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/42549633/Outputs.zip -- Alps touchpad is recognized but neither gsynaptics nor mouse preferences work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
