To check how it's recognized, could you run these commands and post the output: sudo tpconfig -i cat /proc/bus/input/devices xinput --list -- You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/638025 Title: Cannot disable 'tap to touch' on touchpad Dell Inspiron 1545 Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description of bug/status/progression in forum post below ("IMPORTANT: No control over touchpad on Dell inspiron 15R makes Ubuntu unuseable"). http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1573916 This bug renders Ubuntu UNUSEABLE with the Dell Inspiron 15R (standard laptop from Dell) and also laptops which don't use the 'synaptic' touchpad driver (see forum post). --- Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 DkmsStatus: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100816.1) MachineType: Dell Inc.
