Comment 21 for bug 374459

Please download http://people.freedesktop.org/~whot/evtest.c, compile it with "gcc -o evtest evtest.c" and then run it as root with "./evtest /dev/input/eventX" where X is the number for the device. You can get the number by looking at /proc/bus/input/devices.

When the touchpad works,you should get the events as you use it. When the touchpad does not work, do you still see events?
