I don't know why I have not discovered this earlier, even with intense googling. Turns out that 'mouseemu' is a decent workaround.
1) Install package 'mouseemu' 2) Run the command on terminal: mouseemu -typing-block 500 The 500 sets the delay to 500ms - adjust at will. Make the command run on system boot to make the change permanent. Not perfect, but improves things quite a bit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877666 Title: Dell XT2 touchpad not recognized To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/877666/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
