Hello !!

I'm watching this topic a few months ago. As I understand it, the driver
was already released to the Linux kernel, right?
so I hoped so upgrade my kernel (automatically by ubuntu) driver to be
recognized!
Linux 3.2.0-32-generic-pae #51-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 26 21:54:23 UTC 2012 i386
GNU/Linux

I have Inspiron 14R 5420.

After i run:
sudo rmmod psmouse && sudo modprobe -v psmouse
i get:
insmod
/lib/modules/3.2.0-32-generic-pae/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko
proto=imps
so there's a driver, right? ok!

but when I cat /proc/bus/input/devices
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0001 Version=0000
N: Name="PS/2 Generic Mouse"
P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0
S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input18
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=mouse1 event8
B: PROP=0
B: EV=7
B: KEY=70000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
B: REL=3
full on ( http://pastebin.com/NitkME7c )

somebody can help-me what passes should i do ?

previously thankful!
