I have recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my brand new ASUS K55V.

The touchpad behaves weird - two finger tap is interpreted as right-click, click and drag is not working (a double click is needed) and so on. Two finger scrolling (horizontal & vertical) works great.

I want the touch pad to behave the "normal" way (that is - like in my old laptop...). I read the synclient documentation and many of the questions posted here, and I can even make some stuff work. Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to make these work:

1. Click and drag (that is - physically clicking the button and dragging a finger)


2. Clicking in the right side of the button interpreted as right-click


3. Clicking button with two fingers interpreted as middle-click.

specs: The touchpad is equipped with a physical button that clicks. Here's the output of xinput list-props "ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad" | grep Capabilities:

 Synaptics Capabilities (294):  1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1

Any help will be much appreciated.
