Touch strips gone mad
So I've randomly got internet again. I wanted to post to see if anybody's heard about the problem I'm having with my tablet. At first I thought the touch strips were hyper sensitive to touch from when that guy tired to be "helpful" and jam my laptop bag into the almost full overhead compartment. Now I've discovered that what they're doing is reacting even before I touch them. I hover my finger over one and it thinks it's supposed to perform the function it's programmed for. They seem to be gradually getting less crazy sensitive, but that could just be wishful thinking. I didn't even know that the touch strips worked that way. I thought the word "touch" in their name meant that that's what they responded to. I'm starting to wonder if when they ran my bag through the x-ray machine a bunch of times, trying to figure out what the tablet even was (apparently it looks like a laptop on an x-ray and they were very confused) they did something to it. I tried updating the driver, but that had no effect. Any thoughts would be welcomed. It's not a big problem, really, but it is quite the mystery.
