    Why, are you looking to replace it with something different? You don't like it?

    No, not like that. I'm looking for an updated driver for it. I found out that its brand is Sentelic but I can't find any latest drivers out there.

    Hey guys, I have a problem. When I installed 8.5.2.2 first 2 finger scrollen was working.

    But after i tried 8.5.3.x (which wasnt working at all) and returning to 8.5.2.2 2 finger scrollen goes down / up a whole page instead of only a few lines.

    how can i change that?

    scrolling works by holding ur finger on teh top right or bottom right. instead of sliding ur finger up and down just hold on at one point...

    I have looked everywhere for an answer for this. Can you right click on the touchpad or are you stuck using the right click button below it?

    on macs if you tap the top right corner of the touchpad it counts as a right click. I am curious if this touchpad would be able to do something similar.
