Public bug reported: When I go to System -> Preferences -> Mouse, I don't see any of the options for adjusting the touchpad sensitivity, scrolling, tapping, etc. I'm able to control the pointer and click by tapping using the touchpad, but I'm unable to do any scrolling, or two-finger tapping. The system doesn't seem to be identifying the touchpad correctly. When I run xinput -list, and xinput --test, the input which responds to touchpad movement is labeled "PS/2 generic mouse."
I found a page on debugging touchpad detection in the ubuntu wiki, which instructs me to attach the output of some commands to this report. I'm including the output from: cat /proc/bus/input/devices I am unable to attach more than one file, I'm not including that from xinput --list cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-36.63-generic 3.13.11.6 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-36-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: wl .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.4 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Mon Sep 29 09:20:47 2014 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: trusty DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: bcmwl, 6.30.223.141+bdcom, 3.13.0-32-generic, x86_64: installed bcmwl, 6.30.223.141+bdcom, 3.13.0-35-generic, x86_64: installed bcmwl, 6.30.223.141+bdcom, 3.13.0-36-generic, x86_64: installed ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0416] (rev 06) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:3978] InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-09-20 (8 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140722.2) MachineType: LENOVO 20287 ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-36-generic.efi.signed root=UUID=7bef8a0e-4851-4c10-9517-d2cfcdfc127e ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: xorg UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 11/28/2013 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 8DCN38WW dmi.board.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.board.name: VIUU4 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: 31900058STD dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Lenovo IdeaPad Z510 dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr8DCN38WW:bd11/28/2013:svnLENOVO:pn20287:pvrLenovoIdeaPadZ510:rvnLENOVO:rnVIUU4:rvr31900058STD:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrLenovoIdeaPadZ510: dmi.product.name: 20287 dmi.product.version: Lenovo IdeaPad Z510 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.11.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1 version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs N/A version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.52-1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.1 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.15.1-0ubuntu2.1 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.8.2-1ubuntu2 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.3.0-1ubuntu3.1 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1.1 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.10-1ubuntu2 xserver.bootTime: Mon Sep 29 08:53:32 2014 xserver.configfile: /etc/X11/xorg.conf xserver.errors: xserver.logfile: /var/log/Xorg.0.log xserver.outputs: product id 998 vendor LGD xserver.version: 2:1.15.1-0ubuntu2.1 ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug compiz-0.9 trusty ubuntu ** Attachment added: "output from cat /proc/bus/input/devices" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1375263/+attachment/4219131/+files/devices -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1375263 Title: Touchpad not identified properly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1375263/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
