Re: touchpad does not recognize multitouch

 

I don't think anyone has investigated this yet, and I suppose the dell
adamo and the adamo xps have different touchpads...

What do you get from a lsusb command?

Given the vendor and device id, I would google for it like this:

045e:0040 +linux

And see if there is a solution already.

If there is no answer, the best way to get information is to submit a
bug report with:

apport-bug xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

and take it from there...
