Hello HP,
I bought a HP Spectre 13-v151nr and installed Ubuntu on it. But the various gestures of the touchpad do not work on Ubuntu. And sometimes the mouse pointer is sent to the corner of the screen.
How to solve this?
Thanks!

Hello @VitorBrangioni
Welcome to the HP Support forum. Thank you for posting.
HP does not officially support Ubuntu on your model. Only Windows is supported. These functions may not be present in Linux-based OS due to the drivers inability to do it. This is some generic information how drivers work in Linux-based systems (they are part of the kernel) >> https://www.howtogeek.com/213488/how-to-install-hardware-drivers-on-linux/
If you want to experient, please post over Ubuntu communities for more information:
or
Hope this helps.
