[Bug 1129908] [NEW] touchpad problems
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 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1129908 Title: touchpad problems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1129908/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1129908] Re: touchpad problems
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. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1129908 Title: touchpad problems To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1129908/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
