I'm seeing this bug (touchpad detected as generic mouse) on an external keyboard\trackpad. http://www.ceratech.co.uk/pages/epos/pos/kyb500-k82b.htm The Touchpad chip is a CIRQUE. dmesg and Xorg.0.log detect the keyboard and mouse as TG3 Electronics TG82tp The touchpad is detected as Generic Mouse. What is interesting is I get the same problem with this external keyboard\trackpad combi on a dell laptop D400 and D410 but on those the built in touchpad is correctly detected and supports scrolling.
here is the dmseg output. [13529.167297] input: TG3 Electronics, Inc.
