I bought Acer Predator 17" (GX-792) the deep learning research purpose, and I installed Ubuntu 16.04 as dual booting.
I think everything works well, except trackpad. There are two buttons in the trackpad, which should be supposed to work as `primary`(left) and `secondary`(right) button.
However, when I tested in the system mouse testing menu, I found that OS recognizes the left button as `secondary` and the right button as `middle`. How can I fix this? Could anyone please help?
* For information, I tested with external USB mouse, and it works well.
FAQ & Answers
I just got the predator 15, and the command:
xinput set-button-map "SYNA7B99:00 06CB:7B99 Touchpad" 1 3 1 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
worked for me
if your touchpad is called something different than "SYNA7B99:00 06CB:7B99 Touchpad" you can find it with the command: xinput -list
good luck!
