I have a Toshiba notebook with Synaptics touchpad. I would like to set 3 finger swipe and some other gestures but they are not available in settings. This official page says there is a driver suite for linux but it also says to be downloaded from the manufacturer. Toshiba doesn't provide any driver for linux, anyone know a way to get this property driver? (Property drivers page doesn't detect the synaptics)

Second question is as the double tap and click results in a right click, I would like to disable right click completely so I won't misclick.

OS : Ubuntu 15.04 Regards.

Kernel driver for your touchpad supports these kind of gestures. You do not need to install any drivers.

You can disable 2-finger tap by

synclient TapButton2=0

in terminal.

To make this setting permanent you can add this command as automatically started application.

As far as I know, unity (Ubuntu desktop Environment) does not support other gestures. Correct me, if I am wrong.
