Stretch+KDE amd64bit and Synaptic touchpad

#1 Post by GabrieleMax »

I got a HP2170P, I'm coming from Jessie so I know how to enable Synaptic touchpad there but is there something new or better than what I did in Jessie to enable it on Stretch?

I tried http://www.debianuserforums.org/viewtop ... f=10&t=658 but after it the arrow movement is very slow and like what I wrote above I don't know if it is the best way in Stretch!

That's not easy to answer, because you didn't say what you did, so how would anybody know if there is something better?

found this on a web search for plasma5 touchpad

Testing/unstable have switched to libinput as the default touchpad API.

Thanks, I solved my "problem", it was so easy to enable it but I thought in Linux everything is not easy to do and hardware area is one of the heavy thing to do...
