Touchpad will not scroll or right click with two finger tap. Synaptiks comes up with an error saying no touchpad detected. Found some other posts on the forums about these issues but didn’t know what to do with the tar.gz files they led towards. From the outputs listed below the systems seems to be using a mouse driver instead of a touchpad driver but I have no idea how to correct this.
Touchscreen is odd because it won’t respond to tap-hold gesture consistently so sometimes it will highlight and other times not. Again, seems to have loaded a mouse-type driver instead of something for a touchscreen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the walls o’ text.
Saw in other posts that these outputs could be useful to you wonderful people able to help with this stuff:
