I recently upgraded to ubuntu 17.10 and my trackpad is not working properly now. I think this has something to do with the adaptive acceleration of touchpad or something(the speed is automatically varying now.For example if i intent to quickly go to close button it it wont be where i want it to be, it will sometime slowdown or speed up.it seems Other buttons in the screen is also having an effect on this issue).
I am using DELL inspiron 15 3567 laptop. The trackpad was with earlier versions of ubuntu. I tried to get drivers for ubuntu from dell website. But they have got no drivers for ubuntu.
I thought i will get used to this so i waited for over a month now. But i am seriously facing an issue.



I tried reducing the speed of the trackpad also. Even that didn't help.



Please help me solve this problem.



Output of dmesg lspsi and lsusb

  • dmesg states that "psmouse serio1: synaptics: Your touchpad (PNP: SYN0609 PNP0f13) says it can support a different bus. If i2c-hid and hid-rmi are not used, you might want to try setting psmouse.synaptics_intertouch to 1 and report this to linux-input@vger.kernel.org." - give it a try and see if this helps?

Thanks for the help.
