[22:05] what info do you need? [22:05] it has 8 GB Nvidia GTX 1070 [22:05] 16 GB RAM [22:06] I7 7700HQ [22:06] the touchpad would be a good start [22:06] the thing you're asking about [22:06] Its Dell Laptop [22:06] I mean Dell Alienware laptop [22:06] right, what is the touchpad [22:06] lol [22:06] I don't know [22:06] ok - so find out [22:06] How to check that [22:06] ok, I'm not taking this futher [22:07] to be precise, its alienware 17 r4 [22:07] as I said earlier, you're running pre-release software with no support, you are expected to be able to nagivate this platform at a basic level [22:07] if you are unable to even work out your hardware platform, you won't be able to use pre-release software [22:07] touchpad is Palmrest [22:07] I've never heard of that brand [22:07] kidding [22:07] how did you get that info [22:08] ahhh, so time wasting [22:08] ok, bye [22:09] alienware 17 .. fn + F11 t-pad ??

[22:20] well I already said above [22:20] I tried xinput list [22:21] and I didn't find any device for touchpad [22:21] all I can see keyboard, webcam [22:21] odd, you might want to file a bugreport then [22:23] when I do xinput list, I can see, virtual core Xtest pointer, virtual core xtest keyboard, webcam_fhd, at translated set 2 keyboard [22:26] ok I got it fixed ..By following steps here https://askubuntu.com/questions/866437/function-keys-do-not-work-brightness-sound-ubuntu-16-04/866571#866571 === thrmo_ is now known as thrmo
