Ok i've some new infos. I noticed that when I touch the touchpad the cursor goes somewhere in the screen as if the touchpad were a tablet. eg. touching upper left corner and the mouse will go to 0,0, touching the bottom right and the mouse will go to 1210,380 This is called IIRC absolute mode. I've google a bit and I've found that I can switch from absolute to relative mode with tpconfig, in theory, but in practice it doesn't work:
$ sudo tpconfig --relative Found Synaptics Touchpad. Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode). Packets: absolute, 80 packets per second. -- synaptics touchpad is unusable with a macbook pro https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202515 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
