Title:
SynapticsTouch Pad V 1.03U3 not recognized as a touchpad
Status in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have a new HP Pavilion Split X2. The system recognizes the existence
of the touchpad, in that I can use it, but it doesnt' give me any
touchpad features (most specifically, I really want to be able to turn
it off while typing so that my palm isn't making me skip all around
all the time.
This is a fresh install of 14.04, fully up to date.

Trying to use synclient in any way gives me:
"Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?"
I've tried installing touchpad-indicator, but it seems to crash on
trying to do anything. I've tried installing Pointing Devices, but it
too seem to not do anything (though it recognizes the "SynapticsTouch
Pad V 1.03U3").
Version: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 1.7.4-0ubuntu1
Fresh install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
What I expected to happen was that my touchpad would be recognized as a
touchpad--what happened was that it seems to be recognized as a mouse? There
are no touchpad options.
I'll try to send the apport information if I can manage to do it right...
