In VT, I did:

$ sudo lsinput | less

and found "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" at

/dev/input/event7

so then I did:

$ sudo evtest /dev/input/event7 | tee evtest.dump

and wound up with a blinking cursor and no output at all corresponding
to input from the trackpad.  I had to do a forced shutdown to get out
of it.  I will check to see if evtest.dump was created and post output
here if I find it.
