Touchpad Basics
The following tips will help you use the touchpad:
1. Move your finger across the touchpad to move the cursor.
2. Press the left and right buttons below the touchpad to do selection and
execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right
buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad produces similar
results. See Table 1-6.

Also keep the touchpad dry and clean.
Keep your fingers clear of the touchpad when typing.
The touchpad is sensitive to finger movements. Hence, the
lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping too hard will
not increase the touchpad’s responsiveness.
Refer to Appendix D for details on the touchpad driver utility.
