Possibly #1336086 is a dublicate. I am confirming this bug for my DELL LATITUDE D620 (old machine) and Ubuntu Trusty LTS.
The trouble with the touchpad driver - the touchpad being misrecognised as a PS2 mouse - seems to occure with different DELL models as well as even with different manufacturers (cf. #1336086). Since working with a pointing device is essential to productive working on a computer and since there has been often trouble with this driver since Ubuntu Precise (solving the bug seems to have been eventually dropped for Precise, Quantal etc.) I would like to suggest that a bug solution should be intensively worked on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1329034 Title: Touchpad only recognized as mouse2 but does not offer scrolling To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/1329034/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
