Hello everyone. Today I come to you with problems on my little laptop/tablet convertable. I was tired of Win8.1 so decided to go the way of OpenSUSE. Install went ok aside from some RadeonHD problems that I have resolved. Now I have the system running fairly stable on openSUSE 13.1 with the TabletPC pattern installed and all software updated through YaST. The problem I am having now is sort of a two-part problem. First, the touchpad does not work, I read some problems others were having with touchpads getting partial functionality. Mine does nothing. The second part to the problem, my touch screen is working, however it is working as a mouse instead of a touchscreen. Meaning, if I tap and move even a small distance, instead of a click, or even a drag, I get a click AND drag. I also am showing no signs of multitouch working on the touchscreen, however I’m not completely certain what is supported with touchscreens at this time. My main concern right now is to have a working touchpad… And if someone can help get my touchscreen working like a touchscreen instead of a mouse that would just be an added benefit. I have pasted a few things which seem relevant based on what I’ve seen asked in other posts. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys and girls!
