I have the same problem in linux mint 17.2, with my Asus Zenbook ux305FA, and tried, inspired by Fabio's comment #59, to manually patch synaptics.c (see http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=BC3fgErn ) from the package xserver-xorg-input-synaptics_1.7.4 in the mint repository.
More precisely, I pasted in the last chunk of +'ed lines in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=100632 as a replacement of line 3003: inside_active_area = is_inside_active_area(priv, hw->x, hw->y); in synaptics.c file. This compiled into a package that I could install, but the bug persisted. Thanks for any help or advice on how to fix this bug! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026046 Title: Missing support for thumb resting on bottom of clickpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/1026046/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
