Bug Description
I have an Asus N56VZ laptop, whitch comes with an ELAN Touhpad.
I'm using ubuntu 12.04.
The touchpad is made of a fully sensitive area, and features no phisical button (the whole sensitive area is itself a single mechanical button)
According from where you press the touchpad (the left side or the right side), you get a left or right click: this is the (correct) behaviour under windows, but not on linux.
--> On linux you always get a left click, wether i click on the right or left side of the touchpad.
I guess that the driver should analyse the location where the user press the touchpad and return either a left or right click.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.5kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.
Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag(Only that one tag, please leave the other tags). This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text.
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel- fixed-upstream' .
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel- bug-exists- upstream' .
If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel- unable- to-test- upstream' .
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".
Thanks in advance.
