This problem is a bit unique, couldn't find something on the web
I have 2 in 1 Dell Inspiron 13 5378, and I encountered the following issue:
on the touchpad mode, the SPACEBAR && ENTER && DELETE button just doesn't respond
on Windows everything is working, on Ubuntu all the touch is working except those 3 buttons,
I tried turning around the screen, change buttons positions nothing helps
I talked with Dell Representative he was like "say what?! "
Ubuntu is installed as a partition on a windows machine, I can try reinstalling it all, but this will be the last resort,
Any insights would be amazing 3>
EDIT:
I used this site: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2396712 as a reference, got onboard, it doesn't fix my problem, but it's a different keyboard, more functionalities, will do until we'll the 19.04

I've never had a touchscreen computer myself, but seeing as the only thing that doesn't work is a few buttons in your on-screen keyboard, maybe you could try switching to a different onscreen keyboard. See here: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2396712 ...there are also a few other suggestions in this post that could possibly help you
