touchpad on pinebook issues?
#11
KDE Plasma Workspaces

enter KDE System Settings
choose Hardware / Input Devices / Touchpad (If it's not there, install kcm_touchpad first, then restart System Settings. It's installed by default.)
select the Tapping tab
check the "Enable tapping" checkbox
set some tapping actions under "Buttons" below, the default is to do nothing

So under my settings the touchpad option is there but nothing is selectable because it says no touchpad detected..it thinks the touchpad is a mouse..would the install kcm_touchpad fix this?

I guess I can give it a shot what do I do type sudo install kcm_touchpad in terminal?

well got into mouse settings and somehow i now have two finger scrolling! i clicked the invert scroll direction a couple of times and somehow it just came to life...still no pinch to zoom or tap click but the ability to scroll has made this thing much less painful to use haha

not sure what happened here, but ill take it. thanks for the help everyone
