Acer E5-571 no right click

I have a problem with my acer e5-571 running archlinux with gnome.

The touchpad isn't recognized correctly, I have no right click.

On boot I get the error:

i2c_hid i2c-SYN1B7D:01: failed to retrieve report from device.

xinpput list:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                    	id=2	[master pointer  (3)]

    ↳ Acer WMI hotkeys                        	id=13	[slave  keyboard (3)]

This seems to be the same issue, but when I blacklist i2c_hid I have no mouse at all.

Any help is highly appreciated, if you need more debug info just let me know.

No ideas? hmm
It gets really annoying, no right click is possible, sometimes the mouse just vanishes and I have to restart.

Re: Acer E5-571 no right click

Edit: Some more experementation has found that it's probably not the touchpad causing the problem. It looks like something's calling GLib's g_environ_setenv() function with a null value for the environment variable being set, and that's causing a segfault. I'm not sure what's calling it, though.

I just bought an Acer E5-571-30VE. The touchpad doesn't have a right mouse button, but a two-fingered click right-clicks, and a three fingered click middle-clicks. Personally, I'm just going to use a mouse, I think. I don't like touchpads anyways.

The only problem I'm having is that a touchpad without a right mouse button seems to be causing errors in libinput that are contributing to GNOME on Wayland crashing on login:

Re: Acer E5-571 no right click

Pabi I'm actually facing the same issue with kernel 3.16 and newer on acer aspire V3-371-59D3...
At this moment I have not solved the problem but I could notice that when running kernel 3.14 there is no issue..
I tell you if I get some results..

Re: Acer E5-571 no right click

Same problem. Also in KDE, xfce, dwm and other desktop enviroments or wm's
I think it's a kernel module fault...
Also for me with an older version of the kernel/Debian 6/ ubuntu 11.04 i have no problem
I've noticed that in these older version the kernel module used for the touchpad is 'psmouse' which I think it's currently deprecated... It's also viewed correctly as "Synaptic PS2 etc." and not "2c-SYN1B7E:01"
Is there anyone solved this problem?

Re: Acer E5-571 no right click

Add this to 50-synaptics.conf:

Section "InputClass"
       Identifier "force clickpad"
       MatchProduct "SYN1B7E:01 06CB:2970 UNKNOWN"
       Option "ClickPad" "on"
       # Enable bottom right half as right button
       Option "SoftButtonAreas" "50% 0 82% 0 0 0 0 0"
       Option "TapButton1" "1"
EndSection

This will let you right click in the bottom right hand corner.  I have the E5-571 too.
