Fedora 20 and Dell Latitude e6400

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I was recently gifted an old Dell Latitude E6400 laptop and, given its age and what I've read, I thought getting Fedora 20 going on it would be smooth.

And, to some extent, it was. I was primarily concerned with the wireless, but that seems to have been fixed for some time.

Sadly, it wasn't without issues. I'm currently having issues getting my trackpad and my webcam going. I've done some looking around with no luck.

For the touchpad, I get basic functionality. I can "tap to click" and use the pointer, but I can't use the scroll areas on the side/bottom for scrolling. Clicking both physical buttons don't perform a middle-click, and tapping with 2-fingers don't give me a "right" click. Going under "mouse & touchpad" in Settings only gives me very basic options.

Running "xinput list" shows it being seen as a "PS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad". Searching for Fedora and this don't yield much/anything.

I'm running Fedora 20 updated as of today. Kernel is 3.15.10-200.fc20.x86_64.

I also would like to get the webcam going. When I try to run Cheese, I get a "no device found" error. Running lsusb doesn't show a camera attached.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Brian
