anyone with svn access willing to add this define to the
usbhid /appletouch driver

#define GEYSER3_MBP2_PRODUCT_ID  0x021A

and then also to the blacklist aswell as the supported devices in the
appletouch driver ?

then these core 2 duo mbp people will be happy...

Just suscribed so I'm not quoting Karl's original message. Sorry.

I'm having the same problem on my new MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo.... I've
scoured the web for days on end and can not get synaptics to recognize the
touchpad. Gives the same error that Karl is getting. I'm using
synaptics-0.14.6....

well open the file drivers/usb/input/appletouch.c (kernel source) in an
editor and replace
#define GEYSER3_JIS_PRODUCT_ID  0x0219

for testing with

#define GEYSER3_JIS_PRODUCT_ID  0x021A

if you applied the apply the usbhid.patch in
mactel/mactel-linux-trunk/kernel/mactel-patches-2.6.18/

do the same there rebuild+reboot and post results...

Thanks Soeren. That did the trick. Not sure why I didn't think of it myself. I had to do something similar with alsa to get a card working a few years back.

I've never used the synaptics driver before, but if you lightly touch the pad and then move, it doesn't register. I'll assume that has something to do with one of the many settings in xorg.conf.... Time to poke around.

Thanks again Soeren. Much appreciated. I'm really liking the double-tap right click.
