Comment 0 for bug 1378547

The touchpad on my ASUS N550JK laptop is being recognized as a PS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse, rather than as a touchpad. As such, I haven't been able to turn on edge- or two-finger-scrolling, which would be most desirable. The touchpad does function as a simple mouse for moving the cursor and clicking, however.

(I'm sure there are other issues appearing in the log, too. This is a fresh install on a new computer, so I'm working out the issues in the order in which they annoy me.)
