I've posted a new version with just a few changes for debugging problems that have been reported, available at:
http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/alps-touchpad/psmouse-alps-0.7 /psmouse-alps-dkms_0.7_all.deb Anyone whose machine has a trackstick, please check that the mouse buttons just below the keyboard (above the tochpad) are working and let me know if they do not. Especially anyone using a Dell Latitude E6510. Hemanti: For your stray click problem I added in optional packet dumping, disabled by default. To enable it on your machine, run the command: echo "options psmouse alps_dump_packets=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/psmouse.conf Then install the 0.7 package, and finally unload and reload the psmouse module. The next time you see a stray click after this, stop using the touchpad *immediately*, switch to a virtual terminal (e.g. Ctrl-Alt-F1), and run 'dmesg > dmesg-stray-click.txt'. Then you can switch back to your desktop using Ctrl-Alt-F7, and dmesg-stray-click.txt here. To stop logging the packets you can remove the /etc/modprobe.d/psmouse.conf file. Petr: I actually only have one report of the trackstick buttons being reported in the trackstick packet, but the hardware was no longer in the possession of the reporter. So in this build I've removed the reporting of buttons from the trackstick packet and am only looking in the touchpad packets, reporting them on the trackstick device. Can you verify this fixes your issue? -- 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/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
