Jeff: Although your suggestions could indeed provide a reasonably working workaround for some users, it is not the preferred way for fixing this problem.
Although it can indeed by useful for the reporter to work around the problem with the configuration files, we shouldn't consider providing only one feature of multi-touch support via emulation using this configuration. There are two reasons for this: 1) We would have to recognise multi-touch somehow anyway, otherwise we can't enable emulation when it is expected. 2) Using software emulation of a feature that should be supported by the (kernel) driver is not how we want things to work in Ubuntu. This issue should be solved properly, and that means it is indeed a duplicate of bug #308191. -- two finger scroll/multitouch not working on lenovo thinkpad w510 having SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554980 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
