As Philip reported, the "fix" is not satisfactory at all, as it only emulates 2 fingers recognition whereas the touchpad is actually capable of multitouch recognition, but behaves as if it was not.
I hope a driver revision or something solves the issue ! By the way, I am experiencing this on a brand new Dell Studio 17 (1747) laptop, and I am using the emulation workaround for now. Actua Thank you Philip for compiling all the info and links to other useful bugs worth reading in the same bug report. Cheers, Eric from France. ;) -- two-finger scrolling does not work on Dell Studio 15 (1555) via gui config https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/476866 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
