    Lenovo thinkpad Helix 14.04 and 14.10

    Hi,
    I have just bought a Lenovo Thinkpad Helix and it is still on windows 8.1 but want to install there some linux version, the one is ubuntu for it's support about hardware. So that I tried it with a livecd version (14.04 and 14.10 in 64bit). The finally tests were done with 14.10 (unity).

    I could see that everything is working out the box (obvously could not try deattach of screen - usb ports on tablet are in the bottom).

    - UEFI boot worked ok
    - wifi worked ok
    - audio works, up, down, mute audio, mute mic buttons works
    - screen up and down volume buttons works
    - screen lock button do nothing
    - brightness buttons works
    - enable/disable wifi button works
    - suspend could not test
    - deattach could not test
    - virtual buttons of touchpad are working (all the regions of touchpad are left click unless right-top and right-bottom that are the right click)*
    - trackpoint: scroll is not working (push middle button and get 360º scrolling with the red button)
    - touchscreen is working (using finger and pen) but not tapping+scrolling
    - touchpen: works ok, but on using touchpad, trackpoint, finger and more, it uncalibrates.


    * to do scroll out of the box you should tap to touchpad with one finger and with the other do the scrolling

    Now I paste more info.

    I offer to do tests on this machine, always on livecd. User will don't allow not be able to do tapping scrolling... so... users...

    I autoreply a half solution:

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...grab-and-drag/

    Installing this addon with default config is possible to have the desired behaviour only on browser.

    So, nice to could enable this function to operating system. Wishlist.
