it has an intel chip i5
I have tried Racy 5.3 lupu 525.1 macpup 529.1 and retroprecise 542.1
they are all ok until it comes to mouse /trackpad selection then nothing else will work.
any Ideas please (anyone)

I think... if you try Lucid 5.2.8 005 and load the Ubuntu repository into the packet manager, you might find some Ubuntu software regarding the trackpad.

Thanks for all your replies But I am still unable to get one to load and work.
I will keep trying as the new pups come out(which is quite often thanks to all you guys)
