Description Maverick Kaung 2012-05-25 17:05:12 UTC
Description of problem:
Currently I'm using a DELL Inspiron 15R N5110 with Alps GlidePoint Touchpad. The touch pad only does clicking (left & right) and move around. No multi-touch/scrolling.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.3.7-1.fc17.x86_64 (updates-testing repo)

How reproducible:
Try scrolling vertically/horizontally without making use of the scrollbars.

Actual results:
clicking (left & right) and move around only

Expected results:
multi-touch/scrolling vertically/horizontally

Additional info:
should have scrolling vertically/horizontally

Is this still happening in the 3.4.x kernel updates?

Comment 2 Maverick Kaung 2012-07-06 04:00:27 UTC
I've updates-testing repo enabled and currently, my F17 is at kernel version: 3.4.4-3.fc17.x86_64 but in the "Mouse and Touchpad" settings, I still don't have the options to configure multitouch stuff. So, yes, it's still happening in the 3.4.x kernel updates.

Comment 3 Josh Boyer 2012-07-06 13:19:38 UTC
Is only the multitouch functionality missing?  So normal "mouse" operation works, including side and horizontal scrolling?
