    Envy 14 - Synaptics 15.1.22.1 helped me a lot! How about you?

    Hi. I don't really like physical buttons on Envy 14's trackpad and always use tapping to navigate - one finger tap for LMB, two finger tap for RMB, three for MMB. I use reil's envyTouchPad app for that. So far two and three finger taps have often been confused by the laptop - i.e. a link would be right-clicked instead of opened in a new tab.

    However, new Synaptics driver really made a difference! I removed the previous version, rebooted and installed it from here:

    Right now my Envy doesn't miss any three finger taps. It really makes a difference and makes especially web browsing much more enjoyable.
