If you want to override the defaults system-wide, use a file in /etc/X11/, e.g. Override options in /etc/X11//nfĪt start, Xorg reads vendor-supplied configuration commands from directory /usr/share/X11/ (details in man ).

SYNAPTICS TOUCHPAD DRIVER UBUNTU 14.04 INSTALL
Trying to install the unment dependencies of xserver-xorg-core directly, shows that they are already installed. I tried sudo apt-get clean, sudo apt-get update, sudo dpkg -configure -a and sudo apt-get -f install, but all those did not solve the problem. Trying to install xserver-xorg-core aborts with a similar problem, i.e. Libclutter-1.0-0 : Depends: libcogl-pango15 (>= 1.15.8) but it is not going to be installedĮ: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages. Libcheese7 : Depends: libclutter-gst-2.0-0 (>= 0.10.0) but it is not going to be installedĭepends: gstreamer1.0-clutter but it is not going to be installed Libcheese-gtk23 : Depends: libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 (>= 0.91.8) but it is not going to be installedĭepends: libcogl15 (>= 1.15.8) but it is not going to be installed Note, selecting 'xserver-xorg-core' instead of 'xorg-input-abi-20'

Output of sudo apt-get install xorg-input-abi-20: Reading package lists. Xserver-xorg-input-synaptics : Depends: xorg-input-abi-20ĭepends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.14.99.902)Į: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. The following packages have unmet dependencies. The following information may help to resolve the situation: Requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstableĭistribution that some required packages have not yet been created Output of sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics: Reading package lists. All those packages should be installed already by default (my installation is fresh, this is the first thing I do on this system after wi-fi driver installation). To get things like two-finger-scrolling or suspending the touchpad during typing, I wanted to install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics but installation fails with two unmet dependencies due to held broken packages (command outputs below). I have Ubuntu 14.04.2 installed on a Lenovo S21e-20.
