How can I enable my touch-pad and get my net-book to recognize smartphones/MP3 players?
I'm using Fedora 18 Xfce (Spherical Cow) and am fairly new to Linux.
The current options under preferences> keyboard and mouse> only give me Desktop-like mouse functions.
When hooking up an external device, such as a MP3 player, or my Nexus 4 / iPhone's, I get nothing. It does not even recognize they're there. Weird… Like I said. I'm new to Linux and so far, I find this version the most appealing after trying Mint, Ubuntu, and some Jonnycloud ios thing.
All help or pointers in the right direction are appreciated. Thanks!
Added (1). (USB Flash Drives are recognized) Phone's/MP3 players do not even register.
I'm using an Acer Aspire One Net-book. The touch-pad options do not show up like it says they do in the Fedora Forums.
I just had the operating system booted onto this computer recently, and the. IOS installed directly to the hard drive already.
I'm sure the system is up-to-date with all updates installed as well.
I'm reading up on it, and other people seem to have similar problems. Most resolutions I find are for other Linux version's and I'm not sure if they will work on the current version of Fed 18 Xfce or not.
