[Bug 1825499] Re: Touchpad vertical sensitivity is much higher than horizontal sensitivity [HP Pavilion g6]

[Kareem]

This bug affects me linux wide.
Laptop: HP Pavilion G6 2209se
tried touchpad-edge-detector and it detects resolution correctly.
tried removing pre-set resolution in 60-evdev.hwdb for G6 model with no difference.
tried installing synaptics client and it detects and actually modifies the touchpad parameters normally but the issue still persists. (too high speed vertically and too low horizontally).

tried distros:
Manjaro 18.
Ubuntu 19.
Fedora 30.
Kubuntu 19 (Current).

its driving me crazy because i even tried installing the latest Manjaro
18.1.0 and it still produces the same issue.

Bug description:
  After installing Kubuntu 19.04, I found that vertical sensitivity is much higher than horizontal sensitivity.
  Installing xserver-xorg-input-synaptics improved the situation a bit and enabled KDE touchpad setting that were disabled.

  It's very annoying.

  Laptop: HP Pavilion g6.
