May 7, 2010I am running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx LTS. My laptop is an HP Pavilion TX1210AU (TX1000 series). After disabling the touchpad using the toggle button and reenabling it again, it stopped working. I tried restarting my laptop and the mouse worked again only up to the Login Screen. After logging in to my account, the mouse froze again. I tried making a new account and tried logging into it (I'm using it now) and it's now fixed. Does Ubuntu change any user settings everytime the touchpad toggle (on/off) button is switched? Maybe I could just reenable it myself.

Sep 5, 2010I had a post about how my "e" key turns my touchpad on/off as well as typing the letter "e". For some reason it generates two keystrokes. So, I was wondering how the operating system (I'm using openSUSE distro) controls the state of the keyboard. I assume somewhere there's a way to say "keep touchpad on at all times", or even better "when toggling touchpad if touchpad is off, turn it on"... Somewhere I think deep within the OS. Does anyone know where I can go to change that?

View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Make The Touchpad Less Sensitive?
Jul 13, 2011The touchpad on my Lenovo Z560 is to sensitive. I went into the mouse setting and adjusted the pointer speed sensitivity as low as possible but I don't see any difference. The lightest touch will move the pointer. I saw where some have modified the xorg.conf file but I can't find it in Ubuntu 11.04. From what I could find with Google this laptop uses a Synaptics touchpad. I installed Gpointing-device-settings and was able to change the speed but not the sensitivity. How can I make the touchpad less sensitive?

General :: Can't Adjust Touchpad After Upgrading From Ubuntu 8.1 To 9.1
Dec 1, 2010I just upgraded from Ubuntu 8.1 to 9.1. Selecting (tapping) with the touchpad is a problem. I can not adjust it with the System > Preferences > Touchpad GUI. I have to tap and tap and tap, harder and harder. The sensitivity is way off. Can't adjust it with the GUI.
Anyone else have this issue. I'm using a Dell Inspiron.
More info: sometimes I tap and it works. Other times I have to tap tap tap tap, harder and harder. I believe it's a matter of adjusting the sensitivity of the touchpad, but do not know how to do this after upgrading to 9.1.
Can't do it with the GUI.

View 10 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Touchpad Sensitivity Scales To Virtual Screen Dimensions?
Jul 11, 2011I am experimenting with attaching a second monitor to my Ubuntu Natty laptop, and I have noticed an annoying "feature" that makes any multi-monitor setup so unusable that I actually prefer my single-monitor laptop setup. It appears that the system automatically "scales" the X- and Y-axis sensitivity of the touchpad to match the dimensions of the "virtual" screen that spans across multiple monitors. This is best illustrated with an example. If I set up two monitors side-by-side, the touchpad's X-axis speed is doubled, so that moving my finger the same distance on the touchpad causes the mouse on the screen to move twice as far in the X direction as it did when I had only a single monitor. Yet the Y-axis sensitivity remains unchanged, so all diagonal mouse movements end up at the wrong angle. This makes the touchpad almost completely useless, since the mouse on the screen does not move in the same direction as my hand on the pad.
Is there anything I can do about this? I just want the X- and Y-axis speeds to be identical, and I definitely don't want my mouse sensitivity changing because I added a screen. The touchpad is a Synaptics touchpad, by the way. The laptop is a Dell M1330 with an nVidia graphics card.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: When Switch Buttons In Synaptics Touchpad - Tapping Gives A Right-click Menu
Jan 23, 2010I work on a laptop and typically have a USB mouse plugged in. Each time I start an X session, I switch my mouse buttons with an: Quote:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 3 2 1"
If I decide to unplug the mouse and work with the touchpad, I must always reverse the options again to pointer = 1 2 3, or else, while the right and the left button still work as a left-handed mouse, tapping, instead of acting like a left-click, gives a right-click menu. My touchpad is listed as:
'ImPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'
using the evdev driver.
I admit that I haven't played much with alternate xmodmap configurations, but I'd like to sort this out. It's even more confusing since I don't have a xorg.conf and, if I manually add one, despite having tried repeatedly, I can't make X-server to read it.
The relevant part of lshal output: Quote:

Debian :: Turning OFF The EEE Touchpad
Jan 2, 2011I have posted questions on several Linux forums that asked how I could turn off the touchpad on my new EEE-900A netbook. There is a backstory that is not that relevant, but in a nutshell, I got this tiny low-power computer to be my voice since my speech is impaired. Only the latest Debian has the tools I needed.
After much searching, suggested that I remove the touchpad driver; the command as root: # rmmod psmouse
Did the trick. On the 900A, the protocol that handles the touchpad is the PS/2. Removing the psmouse driver module does not affect my USB mouse, so now I can use my USB mouse and type away with my left hand and bumping into the touchpad doesn't screw things up. In other words: Success. (I am being as explicit as possible so that all search engines will find this.

Mar 3, 2010I tried installing and using gsynaptics as well, but that just broke my touchpad (yes, I editted xorg and whatnot) on my Macbook 5.1 (aluminum).Really, my touchpad has been working well by default, but it's far to sensitive and moves around as my palm grazes it during typing (even with the "disable while typing" option turned on). Tapping is so sensitive that I accidentally click things all the time. Yes, I can turn that off... but I LIKE it. I love tapping.At any rate, it seems that ubuntu is ignoring whatever settings I add to the said file and I just want to tweak it a little.
