impossible dragging, copy-paste, middle-button, jumpy cursor in HP Pavilion dm1 Notebook PC

[Manuel López-Ibáñez]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

It is impossible dragging, copy-paste, middle-button, jumpy cursor in HP Pavilion dm1 Notebook PC.

I think it is a clickpad model.

Tapping 1 finger -> Works
Left button -> Works
Right button-> Does not work
Both buttons for middle-button -> Does not work
Tapping and dragging -> Does not work
Two finger scrolling -> Does not work
Right vertical scrolling -> Works
Selection with left button and dragging -> Does not work

Not much else works as expected.

evtest with left click, right click, both left-right click, tap and drag, drag and left-click, two fingers and other events.

[The Fiddler (stapostol)]

Same here. Any ideas?

[zinadork (zinadork)]

I am shocked that it has taken so long to get this resolved. Synaptics Clickpads are very common on HP laptops.

[IlyaGulya (ilyagulya)]

Yep, i have the same problem.
