[Bug 1129908] [NEW] touchpad problems

2013-02-19 Thread Danbalam
Public bug reported:

Acer Aspire One D270 netbook - Ubuntu 12.04

I have been using the computer in this configuration since around August
last year. But I am a self confessed noob with Linux and Ubuntu.

Touchpad does properly:
 - move cursor on screen (this was a fight just to get that function working - 
i don't know what was wrong with it first off because it started working 
randomly after a reboot)
 - click (left and right)
 - two finger gesture to scroll (vertical only)

Touchpad does NOT do properly 
 - two finger gesture scroll horizontal (yes - option is there in system 
settings - does nothing)
 - disable tap to click (yes - option is there in system settings - does 
nothing)
 - disable touchpad when typing (yes - option is there in system settings - 
does nothing)
 - options to disable when mouse is plugged in (not super important - if I 
could get above three working)
 - other two finger gestures? (maybe I was spoiled on a MacBook Pro before)

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Undecided
 Status: Incomplete

[Bug 1129908] Re: touchpad problems

2013-02-19 Thread Danbalam
I'm sorry, I don't understand. YesI know how to open a terminal window
and I understand that you would like me to type in that command.

This is what I get in return:

Authorize application to access Launchpad on your behalf
Confirm Computer Access

The Ubuntu computer called Lappy wants access to your Launchpad account.
If you allow this, every application running  on Lappy will have read-
write access to your Launchpad account, including to your private data.

If you're using a public computer, if Lappy is not the computer you're
using right now, or if something just doesn't feel right about this
situation, you should choose Do Not Allow 'Lappy' to Access my
Launchpad Account, or close this window now. You can always try again
later.

Even if you decide to give Lappy access to your Launchpad account, you
can change your mind later.


As you can probably guess I don't feel quite right about this so I am going to 
choose Do not allow 'Lappy' to access my launchpad' - Why because I don't know 
what it is going to do. Please include in your instructions what you are doing. 
Is this nefarious activity? I don't know. Is this going to help solve my 
situation. I don't know.

While I understand how to open and use terminal. I don't know what
most/all of the commands do and would appreciate a little more
explaination so I can start to understand what I am doing. Not just
copying and pasting some commands that are given to me.

2013-02-18 Thread Danbalam
Not just Macbook users. I have Acer Aspire One D270 Netbook and cannot
turn off touchpad for typing. Need to pay more attention to my screen
while typing otherwise I have accidentaly started typing randomly in the
middle of a previously typed word or sentence.
