Similar issue for me. Multi touch doesn't work anymore, event scrolling on touchpad as well.
** Description changed: This is likely a kernel problem, but I couldn't figure out which package to file it against if it is. I know others have had this bug, but I haven't seen it reported from this hardware. I'm on a Dell Inspiron 15R (N5110) laptop. It says to specify the manufacturer of the touchpad, but I can't find it. It said "Synaptics touchpad" in a review, and from my googlings I've seen Alps mentioned. In any case, it's not detected as a touchpad, but as a PS/2 mouse, and thus two finger scrolling and other multitouch features don't work. There's no touchpad tab in System > Administration > Mouse. I've attached the output of these commands: $ cat /proc/bus/input/devices - $ xinput --list + $ xinput --list $ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log I'm using Ubuntu 11.10.
