Hello, I m a new linuxer on samsung, thanks for your forum !
I installed Ubuntu 12.10 on my Samsung NP740 3 days ago...
Everything is working except :
-Mutlitouch on touchpad (but one finger work)
-Multitouch on touchscreen (but one finger work)

About the touch pad:
Xinput list say that :
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ ELAN Touchscreen id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 Generic Mouse id=13 [slave pointer (2)]

So it seems the touchpad is just recognized as a generic mouse...
I installed samsung tools ( few minutes ago) but i dont see anything about touchpad (just light, wifi,webcam, fan..)

Do you have any idea how to make works this touchpad with two fingers or more... ?

Thank you !

Hi

I have the same configuration, N740U3E, and I am having the same issue. I am also having problems with the SD Card reader, it worked on Windows 8, but it is not recognized on ubuntu 12.10. Can you confirm that yours is working? Thanks a lot!
