No, I don't get any output. (I think I did what you suggested - put xinput test "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" as a command in the terminal and nothing came up, although when I tried to close the terminal a message came up saying a process was running and I would kill it when I closed the terminal. I waited a long time, but nothing happened, so I closed it.)
