  • Please provide a bit more information about the issues you are having. What exactly is the problem you are experiencing with your touchpad? – mblasco Aug 29 '12 at 18:17
  • the right click does not work. so I was wondering if there is anything I can do like found driver package or something similar to make the touchpad work. it treats the right click as left click, it works only if i do two very quick click on the bottom right corner of the touchpad. there is any way to fix this? – Matteo79 Aug 29 '12 at 23:01

I think I've found a solution for your problem, take a look at this thread on the Ubuntu forums.

Post #18: Kernel Patch (for use with kernel 3.2.0-24-generic-pae)

Post #107: Kernel Patch (for use with kernel 3.2.0-29-generic-pae)

If you are not currently running either kernel version 3.2.0-24 or 3.2.0-29, you can try modifying the patch for your kernel (you will see in the forum thread that others have been successful doing this). This is simpler than it sounds:

  1. Download and extract the .tar archive that user AnotherMuggle has provided in post #18
  2. Locate 'dkms.conf', and open it for editing
  3. In 'dkms.conf', replace all instances of '3.2.0-24' with whatever kernel version you are currently running (3.2.0-27, 3.2.0-30, etc.)
  4. Follow AnotherMuggle's directions from post #18, replacing all instances of '3.2.0-24' with the version number you used in the newly-edited 'dkms.conf'
