I bought a small touchpad to stick on top of the keyboard, and it works fine on the windows computer, but not on my ubuntu desktop.
I mean, when I do "xinput list" it shows the following:
? Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
? ? Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
? ? PIXART USB OPTICAL MOUSE id=8 [slave pointer (2)]
? ? Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
? ? Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600 id=13 [slave pointer (2)]
? ? Macintosh mouse button emulation id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
? ? Cirque Corporation 9925 AG Touchpad id=15 [slave pointer (2)]
? Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
? Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Power Button id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
? No brand SP04-A1 id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Elite Silicon USB Audio Device id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600 id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
The Cirque Corporation touchpad (I'm assuming that's the component name) is the touchpad. Is there anything I'm missing?
