The touchpad's range is actually smaller than the range it announces, usually it's the other way round. Find the file 60-evdev.hwdb on your system and follow the instructions at the top to save this hunk as local hwdb entry. Then restart and check if the behaviour improves. If the hwdb entry applies correctly, evemu-describe should show the new axis ranges. evdev:name:SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad:dmi:*svnLENOVO:*pvrLenovoB590* EVDEV_ABS_00=1270:5659:49 EVDEV_ABS_01=1114:4764:67 EVDEV_ABS_35=1270:5659:49 EVDEV_ABS_36=1114:4764:67</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
