Hi,

i have HP Probook 4530s laptop. i am using centos 6.4. when i download
and install centos 6 cd or dvd from a centos mirror. my touch pad
working perfectly. when i run system update it updates the kernel and
rest of the packages. My touch pad does not work. each time when i log
in to the box i have to manually run gnome-mouse-properties to enable
the touch pad. let me know that is there a touchpad driver available
from elrepo to overcome this problem.

old system specs

uname -a>> Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri

Current system specs (after applying yum update)

uname -a>> Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP

Hi Ahmad,

This doesn't sound like a driver issue to me as the driver works once
loaded - it sounds more like the driver is no longer being loaded as it
was originally.

Anyway, to answer your question, no we don't have any updated touchpad
drivers you can try. I think you are going to have to do some more
digging to try to narrow down the problem before you can find the solution.


Ahmad, is it possible that you disabled your touchpad with Fn key, or in BIOS?

Also, try creating and login with brand new user, and see if that makes any difference.

Also try old kernel and see if it works on it.


1- i never changed touch pad setting with Fn key or BIOS.
2- By creating new user there is no change in the touchpad behaviour
3- Yeah, when i switched to old kernel, touchpad works fine again.

Thank you for taking time.
