Public bug reported: Almost all thinkpads come with a trackpoint and a trackpad. Although Ubuntu does support the trackpoint itself as a tracking device, it would be nice to have a utility to switch between the two. On Windows, Lenovo provides a utility that sits in the system tray and can be clicked on to enable/disable the trackpoint/trackpad. I understand that this can be done via the command line but considering Ubuntu does almost everything automatically in the GUI, this would be a nice touch. It could be in the notification area and of-course shouldn't be provided by default.
Attached is the screenshot of the Lenovo utility in action. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Thinkpad - Utility to enable/disable the trackpoint/trackpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229573 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
