Well, I must confess, for me this fix is sufficient. I will only use the simulated clicks anyway due to the clickpad's design, where the touch- senstive area covers the buttons which means if I use the hardware buttons to click on things, then the pointer will frequently deviate in the process of clicking, leading to undesirable results. That's not a bug, that's just poor hardware design.
It still seems to be a bug, however, in that the hardware clicks cause a malfunction or otherwise cannot be used. This may be frustrating for a new user who is less inclined to fiddle with configurations or willing to compromise on the their clickpad's functionality. Specifically the bug is: clicking the hardware clickpad buttons causes all mouse input to malfunction. So I am uncertain how to mark it here. It's still a bug but it's one I can live with. If you would like, I can still mark it as invalid here or if you prefer, I am willing to continue testing to see if we can get the hardware buttons working too. Please advise me as to which would be best. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1398533 Title: [HP Stream Notebook - 11-d010nr] clickpad malfunctions after performing a click in Lubuntu 14.10 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Edit (12/07): Updated bug description: clicking the hardware clickpad buttons causes all mouse input to malfunction. Edit: This bug is a possible duplicate of bug #1394869 So far, from what I can gather, the clickpad functions normally when using the touchpad portion to maneuver the onscreen pointer. However, the act of using one of the hardware click buttons causes it to malfunction. To test, I ran: xinput --test 11 and the output given shows a rapid stream of positioning data prior to the click, then no data after the click, however the mouse pointer appears to continue to move. However attempting to click on anything with the pointer after the first click of the clickpad registers as a click in the same location with either the clickpad or an external mouse until the clickpad is disabled with: xinput set-prop 11 "Device Enabled" 0 which of course causes the clickpad to cease function, however the USB mouse then continues to work normally. If you would like for me to perform any other tests, please let me know what I can try.
