Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
I have HP Pavillion dm1 (1030s or something), with an ALPS touchpad. The touchpad has never been correctly identified, but it provides a ps2 mouse emulation, which has worked. The sensitivity is horrible, but I've learned to live with that. Upgrading to natty, edge scrolling and emulate3buttons disappeared, so I thought I'd investigate.
The current situation is as follows:
'modprobe psmouse' module gives (in dmesg):
[351174.694720] input: PS/2 Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input23
[351174.719260] input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input24
'xinput list':
⎜ ↳ PS/2 Mouse id=15 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint id=16 [slave pointer (2)]
After enabling ShmConfig in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/, I can run 'synclient -m 1':
time x y z f w l r u d m multi gl gm gr gdx gdy
0.000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 00000000
...but nothing further happens, even if I move the pointer around with the touchpad or click buttons, etc.
So that's where it stands. How can I configure the touchpad so that it is visible, and I can configure things like sensitivity? |

(The edge scroll issue can be fixed by giving the psmouse module the options proto=imps, see
