Public bug reported:
The Acer ES1-311-C9XM is equipped with a Synaptics 'ClickPad', i.e. a
touchpad with integrated 'click' button.
The default settings assume that the ClickPad is just a normal touchpad
with a single hardware mouse button. Basic touchpad functionality is OK.
Multitouch features such as two-finger-tap to right-click, and two-
finger-swipe to scroll, do work.
However, clicking and dragging with the hardware click button, and
right-clicking with the hardware click button, do not work.
`xinput --list` reports the touchpad as `SYN1B7F:01 06CB:2991 UNKNOWN`.
Tweaking settings using `synclient` can fix the problem. For example, to
set up the bottom right-hand corner of the touchpad as the software
right-click button, we can do the following at a command line:
synclient ClickPad=1
synclient RightButtonAreaLeft=610 RightButtonAreaRight=1175
RightButtonAreaTop=489 RightButtonAreaBottom=648
(This configuration is not perfect, and does not persist between reboots
- `xorg.conf` editing probably needed for that.)
