Install the "psmouse" patch https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/350841/ following instructions you find here: http://budts.be/weblog/2010/12/dell-latitude-e6510-screen- and-touchpad. After that, 1) no more random cursor movements while typing 2) tap to click, right side scroll, and doubleclick to grab will work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/678103 Title: Dell Inspiron N Series, Touchpad recognised as generic PS/2 mouse To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/678103/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
