I have a fresh install on a Dell XPS 13 and I followed these guides:
- My touchpad is too sensitive
- Touchpad issues on Ubuntu 16.10
- What to fix with the fresh factory Ubuntu 16.04 on a Dell XPS 13 9360 (Q&A)
None of them allowed me to use the keyboard and trackpad in a normal fashion. I opted for disabling the touchpad and connecting a usb mouse.
I also found this: Problem installing libinput on 16.04.2
However, the libinput
gives me this error:
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-libinput

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xserver-xorg-input-libinput : Depends: xorg-input-abi-22
Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.17.99.902)
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
And the solution listed there, this is to run
install xserver-xorg-input-libinput-hwe-16.04
and that broke my graphic environment and I had to boot in terminal mode and revert the step.
Has anyone here faced the same issue? I don't really wanna go back to Windows since I code a lot, also I've been using OS X for more than 10 years so sorry for any noobness in my question.
Many thanks in advance.
