Check out the folowing if man synclient doesn't offer you much: man synaptics or https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics
Personally I dont understand why the config and folder structure you created did not work. It should have been like this: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ with a file named 51.clickpad.conf with the following: Section "InputClass" Identifier "Default clickpad buttons" MatchDriver "synaptics" Option "SoftButtonAreas" "50% 0 82% 0 0 0 0 0" EndSection Is this how you have done it? All you have to do is log out and log back and the right click should work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/947354 Title: Synaptics Soft Button Areas not working in HP Envy 14 Clickpad To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/947354/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
