Bug Description

I tested this with a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS on my Acer Aspire V17 Nitro in the default kernel as well as the upstream mainline kernel:

Expected behavior:
- When clicking in the right-bottom area, right-mouse click should be issued

Actual behavior:
- Clicking anywhere on the touchpad does issue a left-click
- Clicking in the right-bottom area of the touchpad issues a left-click (see above)

The reason why I'm filing a bug here is because it seems like the touchpad is not correctly recognized by linux, which might be an issue. I will attach everything as suggested here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection
