This is my first time here, I really hope I'm not asking something that have already been asked, but I searched for it a lot and couldn't find any solution.
Well, I have an HP G62 laptop and I have installed Linux Mint 10 RC (gnome edition) in this computer, and these days I've been trying to have access to all my touchpad functions, like two-finger scrolling and stuff. This functions are working when i log in Windows 7.
I used to have that "Touchpad" tab on Mouse->Preferences, but after following some tutorials about it, it has gone (The Two-Finger Scrolling option was grayed out).And now I can't change my touchpad settings, like sensitivity (it does change on mouse->preferences, but it doesnt cause any effects).
Then I tried to type this on Terminal
Code: Select all
fran@fran-HP-G62-Notebook-PC ~ $ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ HP Webcam-101 id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ HP WMI hotkeys id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
I hope you guys can help me(: thanks!
EDIT:I tried to follow this http://www.vivaolinux.com.br/dica/Confi ... -no-Ubuntu tutorial (itś in portuguese but i think you guys can understand it anyway), it didn't worked, and then i couldnt even boot my computer. I booted it in recovery mode, undid my changes, and now i have the touchpad tab again!
