Ubuntu 14.04 two finger scroll

7,264

You might need to edit your xorg.conf file, which lives in the /etc/X11 directory. Try adding a line in the config file that says:

Option    "VertTwoFingerScroll"  "1"

There are lots of customizations you can make to your touchpad config using that xorg.conf document. Check out all the possibilities at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad

      You do not need to add pictures, just select text, copy and paste. There is no touchpad at all detected.

      It looks like this touchpad is not supported.

      So there is no way in which I can solve this problem?
