Found this in the HP Forum of Table Review this the the post and it's pretty cool!!!  Not sure if this has been posted before i didnt see in in the search

If you have the Synaptics touchpad drivers installed from the HP website, download their Scrybe program from www.uscrybe.com. While Scrybe is kind of flaky as a gesture-enabled shortcut and app launcher, the included touchpad gesture package allows all kinds of multitouch gestures on any make and model of laptop with generic Synaptics hardware:

Two-finger vert./horiz. scrolling
Three-finger swipe, tap, and press & hold
Chiral scrolling
Rotate CW/CCW (only gesture that's still flaky)

You can keep Scrybe from opening in the tray at boot and still keep the gesture control. I've removed all the scroll zones and shortcut zones on my touchpad and reclaimed a good deal of space by using gestures.

Very cool, any way to get middle click with this, or does anyone know how to make a simultaneous left and right click equal to a middle click?

Also, I haven't had any luck figuring out how to change the 3 finger flick to switch tabs in Firefox.

On my TouchSmart I can't see any text in the configuration dialog and any other menus. So only the default setting is usable and I can't change them. :(

There's also a Synaptics driver available from HP (though not under the TX2 downloads,) that enables 2-finger scrolling and 3 finger taps.

It doesn't work very well from my experience though. Hope uscrybe is better.

I keep getting this error when trying to install Synaptic Touchpad drivers. Could anyone help me out, this is extrememly frustrating!

I have tried the windows update drivers as well as the ones available on the HP website and continue to get "Synaptics Touchpad Enhancements have stopped working" whenever I boot. And directly after I had installed. Thanks!

What model do you have? Have you tried uninstalling the new drivers?

After having the drivers and uscrybe installed for a while I realized they don't really do the same thing. The drivers enable multitouch gestures in apps that support them, and uscrybe supports only a few specific multitouch gestures to open up a launchpad, etc, and works with or without the multitouch drivers.

I have a tx2z Cto, I have tried uninstalling and reininstalling, but I continue to get this errror. I really just want it for the two finger scroll. Thanks!
