The solution, of course, is to buy hardware that supports Linux. If you are a literate computer user, that should be fairly trivial to accomplish.
E.g., both my Dell XPS and ThinkPad X1 work flawlessly with Linux.
- tupputuppu 6y agoThe state of touchpad drivers with any hardware is quite bad.
- CodeGlitch 6y agoI think either you've had bad luck or I've been very lucky! I've never encountered this (been using Linux since 2005)
- ghthor 6y agoI've never encountered this.
- DigitallyFidget 6y agoWeird, I've not encountered a laptop yet that doesn't work better or at least the same for touchpad with Linux. I always setup my laptops to dual boot for a variety of reasons and never once encountered touchpad driver issues, it always works as expected right after install. From business laptops to consumer laptops, to gaming laptops.
- fierarul 6y agoWell, the X1 is not exactly cheap hardware. There was recently a news that all Lenovo laptops will be Linux certified so I guess there's little change to have issues with a Lenovo Legion. Turns out the trackpad just won't work. I never encountered this -- usually it was the WiFi that might cause issues (and of course, waking up from sleep).
