Ubuntu – Touchpad while holding on touchpad it doesn’t work

16.04lenovothinkpadtouchpad

When I'm holding (not pressing) the bottom line of the touchpad (where the mouse buttons are) I can't move the touchpad. This:

sudo modprobe -r psmouse && sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps

worked but then my two finger scrolling isn't working anymore.
Maybe there are some synclient settings I should adjust?

I have Ubuntu 16.04 and a lenovo thinkpad touchpad

You can install libinput that in most cases solves the problem. Run in a terminal

sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-libinput

and reboot.
