@Ruben I've tried the given tutorial, using the alps.c patch. The touchpad doesn't work anymore. But I can see it with xinput:
$ xinput -list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Ci25m Notebk Optical id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
$ grep mouse /var/log/syslog
