Dell XPS 15z Multi-touch Odd Behaviour

view story
linux-howto

http://askubuntu.com – I have a Dell XPS 15z with 12.04 installed. Once in a while, when I'm using multi-touch scrolling (two-fingers to scroll down), the computer logs out. It's as if I clicked the log out button, but there's no pop up asking me if I'm sure. Also, my work is not saved and all open programs are closed. How do I fix this? It's really annoying! (HowTos)

[Q] One X multi touch issue 32 weeks 1 day ago

Hey everyone, I have a problem with multi touch functions in my HTC One X. I noticed that two fingers multi touch are works fine, but when I use 3 or more fingers, the multi touch doesn't work, actually it opens the media link HD setup. There's a way to disable this behavior?

Okay guys I found a solution: All you need to do is to go into settings->Display, gestures & buttons-> uncheck H

I have a Logitech multi touch T650 and what i have figure out that this this multi touch is been treated just like a mouse.

I'm using Vaio which uses Synaptics touch pad. Multi touch gestures worked with no trouble on my previous installed operating system, windows 7. Now it seems like I can't use multi touch gestures on Ubuntu 12.10 at all. How exactly do I install the right drivers to make multi touch possible on my laptop. Thank you in advanced.

Best regards

I have a Dell N4110 laptop, and I want to know if the drivers are installed and working well.

For example, with my touchpad, in windows it has multi-touch gestures, so that I can scroll or zoom with two fingers (like an ipod).

I have a dell laptop and manual book said that i can scroll using two fingers on the touch-pad and scroll up, down, left, and right but that didn't happen in Ubuntu 11.10.how to make this enable ???

[Q] multi touch help? 14 weeks 5 days ago

so i read that its an issue with the one v that a second touch could cancel the first touch in multi touch which is annoying since i use multitouch like its my job, so is there any rom or way to fix it? i play alot of games, mostly elgard and gba emu and psx emu and because of this issue i die alot or cant do certain things.

I have one of the new acer aspire 1410 "netbooks." I installed karmic today without any problems. However for some reason there is no multi-touch. I turned on the multi-touch scroll in prefs and didn't get it (though I really don't want it - mainly I want 2 finger middle click). I know the hardware is capable from what it was doin ging vista.

Any ideas?

[ubuntu] Multi touch on Lucid 3 years 7 weeks ago

Hi Guys,

I've written a kernel-mode driver for a capacitive multi-touch screen digitizer, can compile and install under Lucid beta release, and its working nicely - as a single point touchscreen.

I know my code is generating multi-touch messages, but I can't tell if the OS is getting them.

#! gave me multi-touch 2 years 21 weeks ago

This is the weirdest thing ever..My 5 year old Toshiba Satellite A200 laptop has multi-touch ONLY in CrunchBang.Not in Windows Vista or 7; not in any other Linux distro.. Just #! Statler..2-finger scrolling works, pinch-to-zoom works, rotation doesn't though (at least not in Viewnior)..This is weird.
