I confirm again.

@bagl0312 Thanks for your detailed description. I tried your suggested solution, but it has no effect on my Dell Vostro v13. The mouse still works, but there is no scrolling support. Who else tried this solution with a Dell Vostro v13?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 380126] Re: [Karmic] Touchpad not recognised correctly, synaptics driver not in use
Happy New Year everyone. I applied the patch yesterday on maverick and it works like a charm. Thank you very much Marcin! For everyone, who never compiled a kernel before, here's a description of how to do it for the latest ubuntu release maverick meercat. I followed this tutorial (in german, sorry): http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Kernel/Kompilierung 1. Open a terminal and get a copy of the latest git-repository git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-maverick.git 2. Change into the directory ubuntu-maverick cd ubuntu-maverick 3. Download the patch, name it v13.patch and save it in your home-directory. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=41862 4. Apply the patch patch -p1 < ../v13.patch 5. Copy your latest existing config from /boot, ie (version number may differ): cp /boot/config-2.6.35-24-generic .config 6. Download this shell-script and place it in your ubuntu-maverick directory. It's written in german, but it does all the work for you. http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/_attachment?target=Kernel%2Fmake-ubuntu-kernel.sh 7. make this script executable chmod +x make-ubuntu-kernel.sh 8. Start the script with your new kernel-variant as parameter ./make-ubuntu-kernel.sh dellv13 9. be sure you press CTRL-D, when it asks "Ă„nderungen im git-Verzeichnis verwerfen" (revert changes made in the git-dir), as this would revert the previous applied patch. 10. you can also press CTRL-D when it asks "Kernel-Konfiguration bearbeiten" (edit kernel configuration), because you already copied your latest config in step 5. 11. Press Return for all the other questions and start compiling. Now wait for a long time. It took at least 1,5 hours on my Core2Duo SU7300. 12. Now you can find the following files in your home-dir (version number may differ): linux-doc_2.6.35-25.43_all.deb linux-headers-2.6.35-25_2.6.35-25.43_all.deb linux-headers-2.6.35-25-dellv13_2.6.35-25.43_amd64.deb linux-image-2.6.35-25-dellv13_2.6.35-25.43_amd64.deb linux-source-2.6.35_2.6.35-25.43_all.deb linux-tools-common_2.6.35-25.43_all.deb 13. Cd up and install new kernel with headers: cd .. sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.35-25_2.6.35-25.43_all.deb linux-headers-2.6.35-25-dellv13_2.6.35-25.43_amd64.deb linux-image-2.6.35-25-dellv13_2.6.35-25.43_amd64.deb 14. Restart and select your new kernel in your bootmanager grub. Enjoy your working touchpad! Once again: Thank you very much Marcin. I hope this patch will be integrated in future kernel releases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380126 Title: [Karmic] Touchpad not recognised correctly, synaptics driver not in use ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
