Nicolás Abel Carbone, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-synaptics REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

I'm testing the 50-synaptics.conf shipped with Ubuntu 12.10 beta 1 on my 12.04 LTS, and works pretty well. Left/right buttons, both working. Tap and two fingers tap (as right-click) working out-of-the-box. Something I still could not correct is the oversensitivity when you push the buttons, but overall is very usable without any tweak. ** Attachment added: "50-synaptics.conf" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/947354/+attachment/3303393/+files/50-synaptics.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947354 Title: Synaptics Soft Button Areas not working in HP Envy 14 Clickpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/947354/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This did it! That is the 2nd option. I did not try the other option. Nevertheless I suggest to leave the bug open. The clickpad should be recognised automatically. Ideally also usable values should be preset. Alternatively a tool to adjust the values would be nice. So, thanks for the help.

[Bug 947354] Re: Synaptics Soft Button Areas not working in HP Envy 14 Clickpad
I can confirm this problem for a Samsung Series 7. I found a partial solution for this. Check if the ClickPad option is on (synclient -l | grep ClickPad). You can set it with: synclient ClickPad=1. Then you need to tell the areas that should be considered as right or middle mouse botton. With synclient RightButtonAreaLeft=1500 RightButtonAreaTop=1700. It seems to be not necessary to set the lower and right borders. You can find the info on the "coordinate system" of the pad in /var/log/Xorg.0.log So far I was not able to set the area for the middle button. I get an error from synclient telling me that the value is wrong I also can not set the options in xorg.conf. The RightBottonArea* options seemt to be ignored. So currently I set the options by calling synclient in .profile . I consider the following to things as bug: - the ClickPad option should be set automatically. - The Area Options are not recognized in xorg.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947354 Title: Synaptics Soft Button Areas not working in HP Envy 14 Clickpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/947354/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
