You know, I think I noticed something similar on my Dell Latitude D620,
too.
I have some kind of Synaptics touchpad, which has a scroll area on the
right. Up to Intrepid it just worked. In Intrepid, however, the scroll
sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, despite a bit of tinkering. I
_think_
I believe I have the fix for the problem were xinput reports AlpsPS/2
ALPS GlidePoint then if you suspend the system it loads up as PS/2
ALPS GlidePoint touchpad not working the same. Here is the list of what
I did to fix the problem this also includes fix the disabling the Tap
on the Touchpads.
I have the same problem described here and would like to add my system
as another data point.

Ok, so now that we determined the cause of the problem, how can we solve this?
I doubt we can rewrite the kernel by ourselves unless u guys are computer
geniuses, so any other suggestions for it?
Maybe a workaround or something?
Oh and btw, according to vista I've got an ALPS touchpad, but
Yes, I know. I thought I've already sent this part of my lshal some time ago.
The problem seems to be that psmouse believes what HAL says and doesn't try to
reach the device using the special protocol as tpconfig does.
No, there's no BIOS setting.

It seems to be a kernel bug - the X server will ask HAL for the input
devices that it knows about, and add them using the driver that HAL
specifies. Since HAL doesn't seem to know about your touchpad, that
would explain why it doesn't work. It looks quite like the kernel
doesn't know about your
No, there's no mouse plugged in at all. It's the touchpad that is misdetected.
I guess that the touchpad has got some sort of compatibility mode in which it
behaves as a normal PS/2 mouse and also names itself as such sort of device.

According to what you have written this is your touchpad:

I think that thanks to Gentoo wiki and LinuxQuestions I have found a

is loaded. Usually (but what is strange - not always) dmesg says something
like:

I think this bug is a bit confusing as there are two problems mixed up.
To make it a bit clearer:
- The origin bug report describes the problem that a Synaptics(!) touchpad is
only detected as PS/2 mouse although tpconfig detects it correctly. This bug is
still unsolved.

I receive the same message, but for me the touchpad doesn't work at all.
It used to work until yesterday, during the last boot some new driver

fox,
Since you have a completely different laptop brand and model it is unlikely
that the cause of your problem is the same one as FriedChicken unless both
laptops use the same chipsets.
For these kind of issues it is better to open a new bug report unless you have
the exact same laptop model.
Bodgan Butnaru,
