A touchpad, and clickpad is a built-in input device for laptops that is used as a computer mouse. Synaptics is a driver for these.
The default gestures are:
- Single finger press on the top 80% of the clickpad surface = primary click
- Two finger press on the top 80% of the clickpad surface = secondary click
- Two finger movement vertically = scroll vertically
- Two finger movement horizontally = scroll horizontally
Linksys Linux Drivers
When clicking the bottom 20% clickpad buttons, one would want to use two fingers to maximize the accuracy of the click.
Ubuntu provides basic configuration of your touchpad options in System > Preferences > Mouse, under the Touchpad tab.
Try the touchpad after unchecking the Enable mouse clicks with touchpad check box.
Check operation after Enable horizontal scrolling is checked. This may not have been the default setting.
Disabling Touchpad while Typing
- Go to System > Preferences > Mouse > Touchpad and uncheck 'Disable touchpad while typing' and 'Enable mouse clicks with touchpad'. (This method is not available under Ubuntu 14.04.)
Completely disabling Touchpad
Alps Touchpad Driver Toshiba
Some systems don't have the option to permanently disable the touchpad via BIOS or it's located in an external keyboard. To fully disable you can do the following:
- Determine the device id (the device name should be something with touchpad or glidepoint)
- Disable it (e.g. here the device id is 15)
You may run the command during session startup
Adjust Touchpad Sensitivity
Determine device number (see above)
Open a separate terminal to watch emitted events:
Replace [device number] with the number of your touchpad from 'xinput list'. It will probably be one of the devices under 'Virtual core pointer'.
This step is not mandatory but it can help to track problems:
If text flies by as you move your mouse pointer using the touchpad, you know that you got the correct device number.
Open another terminal to see current settings: (Again this step can be omitted but is helpful to see available options. Watch for 'Synaptics Finger'. It will change as soon as you apply the next command.)
Set sensitivity:
The terminal running 'xinput --watch-props' should now display
The higher you set the numbers the more force is needed to make an event fire. And the less sensitive the touchpad get.
Determine whether a touchpad has been detected
To check if a touchpad has been detected open a terminal and check the input device list given by this command:
If one of the lines mentions a touchpad or glidepoint (perhaps also 'Synaptics' or 'ALPS'), your touchpad has been detected.
If one of the lines mentions an 'ADB mouse', then your touchpad is old. Use the trackpad command line tool to configure it. Here's an example to switch on tapping and dragging:
Enabling SHMConfig in order to get synclient debug output
Online, the most commonly found procedure for doing this involves using HAL. However, since HAL hasn't been present in Ubuntu since 10.04, you will have to do it the other way -- by editing xorg.conf.
Paste this into the document: Ultra ata cable.

If it's not empty, put it at the end. Save, close the file and reboot.
Now you should be able to see what kind of input your touchpad detects by running
The synclient manpage will explain what the numbers you see onscreen mean.
Touchpad not working after login
This usually happens when you disable your touchpad and then suspend your computer. To fix this just run this command:

If nothing else works, please see the official Ubuntu touchpad debugging article.
synclient is a commandline utility to query and modify Synaptics driver options. This would allow one to adjust touchpad features that may not be exposed via the GUI. One would adjust parameters via a terminal:

where PARAMETER is as listed below, and # is a number. While the formal definition of each parameter may be found in the synaptics manpage, here is a more user friendly description of each of the parameters:
- Turning Synaptics Touchpads On/Off with a Shortcut Key
- Tapping top right of touchpad pastes undesirably
