@hion Yes. With reference to your screenshot above, it should look like this if the Elan software were installed:
Is the "L340" the Lenovo Ideapad L340? -

No its the "IdeaPad L340 Gaming Laptop"
Lenovo is weird with naming, so there is a difference between the "IdeaPad L340" and "IdeaPad L340 Gaming Laptop"Looks like the image below:

@hion Thanks. Nice device btw.
According to Lenovo's support website your touchpad drivers seem to be up-to-date.
I can't imagine a gaming laptop being shipped without the ability to configure one of the central controls such as the touchpad.
I'll see if I can find something about it, but now I have to log out.

@hion said in ELAN touchpad scrolling is horrible on Opera:
Oh ya it does seem like the scrolling is very bad for ELAN drivers, one of my friends had a synapse driver and it worked flawlessly.
When I first got the laptop I've looked everywhere to see if there was a ELAN software that came with my laptop (L340-gaming) but I could not find any!
People are saying that there should be one right next to the "Hardware" tab, but I don't see one. Furthermore, searching "ELAN", "smart-pad", and "touchpad" in the windows search does not bring up any type of elan software.I'm thinking about whether the touchpad drivers might not have been installed correctly. Does your Device Manager under "Mice and other pointing devices" show an entry for Elan or Synaptics, and if yes, maybe with a yellow exclamation mark?
On the Lenovo IdeaPad L340 Gaming Laptop support page, you can perform various online scans to detect and troubleshoot hardware and configuration issues.
And if you search the Lenovo forum for e.g.
L340 touchpad, you'll find some threads from customers who can't find their touchpad settings either.I would probably follow the procedure described in the second post in this thread (*) to try to solve the issue of missing touchpad settings.
If the settings are available, it may also be possible to improve the response behaviour of Opera.
(*) This thread is not specifically for the gaming model, so please make sure to use correct URLs for downloads. However, the procedure for both models is certainly identical.

Ya there seems to be an ELAN device in the Device Manger.
I am a bit busy right now, but I will try to do all the suggested task you stated above in the future, thanks! -
