I'm going to try and find 2.6.34.1-28.fc13 to see if it works for me. All of which makes me suspect the driver isn't right for the hardware. The system preferences lack the pad related options.Īlso, from time to time, sometimes after suspend/resume, the trackpad becomes erratic and the pointer skittish, being over sensitive, missing tap-to-click, and tending to shoot across to the right of the screen, or move about a bit when the finger leaves the pad. It is in fact just a pad with a scroll area marked on the right, two buttons and no stick.
The trackpad is mis-detected and treated as "ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse" according to /proc/bus/input/devices. I have a similar and possibly related problem with my HP 311c (model 311c-1101SA). From what I gathered, it also applied a different driver to the trackpad. Related, Ubuntu applied an entry for "0x73, 0x02, 0圆4" with different masks and flags, but had to revert. I see no difference in how the trackpad actually works. Likewise synclient -m 100 will show a single line of all zeros, but does not show action. If I "cat /dev/input/mouse1" it shows all events but nothing for mouse2. The former is mouse1 and the latter is mouse2. The trackpad and trackstick is handled by "DualPoint Stick" and not "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad". Synclient -l now sees the trackpad and I can set options. I've included a patch for alps.c with this change. I know it needs ALPS_PASS and ALPS_DUALPOINT, don't know about the last (nor how to test it). I'm guessing regarding the masks and flags. I turned on debug in alps.c and it spit out the following:Īdding an entry for this (using the same flags as for the E6400) it gave the following status: The track pad should allow setting of functionality via synclient.
The trackpad and track stick have basic mouse functionalities and are not visible via synclient. Examine /var/log/Xorg.0.log for mention of the ALPS trackpad. I tried it in Fedora 12 and in Ubuntu, too.Ģ. This is a kernel problem in drivers/input/mouse/alps.c and is applicable to this and other distributions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): It is an alps trackpad with stick.įrom what I can gather the E6510 also uses the same trackpad. The trackpad on the Dell E6410 is not recognized.
