I think they have stuffed up the driver!

Thanks.
There are some downloads available, including one for Synaptics. I have enabled them so I'll wait and see.

Which is why there is no settings item.
Check for and download and install the relevant drivers.

That's because I deleted the Synaptic drivers when I found that I couldn't turn off the touchpad. For some reason, despite the lack of drivers, the thing still wouldn't turn off!

Watch out for anyone trying to sell Drivers. They're often selling older levels & the money might be wasted.

Oh, don't worry. Spending money is anathema to me!
Thanks for the warning though.
