How can I get multitouch enabled on my Sentelic touchpad (msi x350 notebook)?
- by Jon
I understand my MSI x350 notebook comes with a Sentelic trackpad, which supports multi-touch (according to the MSI website). Is there a way to enable multitouch on Ubuntu? I've been having difficulty finding info about this on google, and since it's not a synaptics touchpad I haven't been able to find much info in ubuntu docs. My mouse preferences doesn't have a trackpad tab like it does on, say, a Macbook.
Running "xinput list" returns:
FSPPS/2 Sentelic FingerSensingPad id=11
And in my Xorg.0.log:
