Bug Description
Binary package hint: synaptic
inspired by thread here - http://
also reported by Engadget -http://
WHQL driver version 15.0.9.0 of synaptics enables multitouch - including two finger scrolling and , 3 finger press and 3 finger flick.
Note that this does not support all touchpads (reg. hardware versions), but a lot of hardware have gotten abilities that they inherently had, but had been disabled.
It would be great if this can be incorporated into the Linux synaptics driver. People can try enabling these extra features and if their touchpad does support it - it would be amazing !
Macbook features at a quarter of its cost
