The Lenovo X240 is the latest version of the Lenovo Ultrabook Series and also is a complete redesign of the X Series. This can be observed especially with devices like the touchpad, which has been changed to be a one-click touchpad instead of having the classic 5 button touchpad. The X240 is a very light device, weighing in at just 2.84 lbs (1.36 kg) and measuring 12.02" x 8.19" x 0.79".

System Configuration

Touchpad

The touchpad works out of the box. You will need to install xf86-input-synaptics.

Some users may prefer to use the trackpoint over the touchpad. In that case, the touchpad can be disabled via synclient TouchpadOff=1(Will be gone after re-login). See Synaptics for more information and options.
