The touchpad would appear to use the version 2 protocol, since it has 6 bytes per packet. I reported this issue against linux instead of xserver-xorg-input- synaptics because booting into the natty kernel (2.6.38-11) in oneiric fixes the issue and 3 finger taps work correctly. As further testing, I built a kernel from linus's git (so it doesn't have the elantech version 3 patches included with the latest oneiric kernels), and 3 finger tap still didn't work, so my guess it is a problem with one of the changes to include the new kernel multi-touch code. I don't know if this means there is a bug in this new code, or some issue with xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and the new code. I reverted the multi-touch changes in drivers/input/mouse/elantech.{c,h} (back to the version in 2.6.38, still need to figure out exactly where the changes were introduced), rebuilt just the psmouse module and 3 finger tap works correctly again, so if it is a kernel problem, it would appear to be localized to just that module. I will continue to investigate, any assistance is appreciated. # Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-input- synaptics/+bug/873482/comments/70 ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Status: Unknown => Confirmed ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Importance: Unknown => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873482 Title: elantech: Touchpad always reports 3 finger tap as 1 finger tap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/873482/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
