[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work
Hi, I was very glad, when I could finally use my touchpad on my HP Pavillion dm4-2000sg. Thank you again very much for that great work and your great support here, Seth. Unfortunately, I have upgraded my system to Ubuntu 12.04 the other day and the touchpad stopped working. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling the driver, rebooted after each change loaded the module manually, but nothing helped. :( What can I do? Btw, I still have the debug outputs about those random clicks that just happen from time to time on my hard drive. Are you still interested, Seth?

Thanks Seth, it works now. :-) I just had to install the new version in all my Ubuntu systems (Natty and Oneiric) and rebooting now works fine under all circumstances (at least those I have tested). Now, I'm curious about the backgrounds: How can I find out if I'm using v3 or v4? Do the touchpads which share the same version have the same firmware or are even identical?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work
Hi Seth, I'm quite happy with your driver. As long as it works, all is wonderful. Unfortunately, however, at times it won't work after a reboot (touchpad not recognized --> no reaction of mouse cursor). The only thing that helps then (at least most of the times - sometimes I have to do it a few times) is taking out the battery for a few minutes. Then everything works fine again until that problem occurs again. I hope you'll get this fixed as you have already done an awesome job on the driver.

Thank you Seth! Removing the battery worked. Booting into the freshly installed Natty, the touchpad worked as before.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work
Hi everyone, my problem was that the touchpad was recognized and showed up in mouse settings and gpointing devices as "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" (additionally to a PS/2 mouse I hadn't even connected), but still I wasn't able to scroll (neither edge nor 2-finger ) no matter if I switched that setting on or not. The touchpad even worked when I disabled it using gpointing-devices. Now, I tried your driver, Seth, but after reboot, I couldn't use the touchpad anymore at all. So unfortunately, I couldn't use the dump program or the x_y-values either. If you need that information, I could find it out with a live cd though. I'm using a HP dm4-2000sg and am currently on a natty live usb to try since on the oneiric I have on my hard drive neither the mouse nor the keyboard work anymore in X11 after installing the driver. Not even after removing it and reinstalling xserver-xorg and xserver-xorg-input*. Attached you'll find my dmesg output. Is it possible the driver isn't even written for my touchpad? I just noted a difference in the name (GlidePoint vs. DualPoint). Note that it still registers as 73 02 64 according to dmesg.
