Hi Omar,
Thanks for your mail. This is Tommy from ALPS.
According to your info "E7=73 03 0a, EC=88 b6 06", I think you're now
using ALPS_PROTO_V7 device.
My colleague Elaine(Qiting) is now working with this touchpad's
support and has released a patch last week.
You can have a try ~

If you find any issue or have any suggestion, please kindly let us
know. We'll try our best to make the driver better.
Thanks!
