With Linux nicely installed on my old comnputer, it's tempting to install it on the new one also, but how do I know I won't have the same trouble then too.
Oh, the trouble? Well, my paws seem kind of "heavy-handed" if you know what I mean, and I just keep accidentally touching the touchpad. I had the thing turned off, several times, but, like proverbial bad pennies, it kept coming back again. Now that I've upgraded to Windows 10, the good old touchpad dumping system (fn +f 9 with some messing around that is different and must be re-invented each time) doesn't work at all. My hand is still as heavy as ever, and, in fact the only way I can enter this question in a reasonable time is by using "hunt and peck" methods. does anybody know what to do? The computer is an ASUS R509C, and that surely matters. My web-search gave me several suggestions, none possible, since stuff they say will happen along the way don't happen.
