I have an HP Envy 15 second generation that comes with synaptic touchpad clickpad. I was testing the maverick kernel for machine shutdown and suspend problems with new bios. Maverick kernel does not detect the touchpad as a synaptic clickpad.
If you take a look at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-maverick.git;a=blob;f=drivers/input/mouse/synaptics.c;hb=HEAD in synaptics_init() at line 773 i should be seeing clickpad enabled in dmesg but this is what i get:
$ dmesg | grep -i synaptics
[ 10.712182] Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 7.4, id: 0x1e0b1, caps: 0xd04771/0xe40000/0x5a0400
[ 10.790705] input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input13

Hi Serkan,
Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http:// cdimage. ubuntu. com/daily- live/current/ . If the issue remains, please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications- >Accessories- >Terminal) . It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.
apport-collect -p linux 582809
Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text. Please let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.
