Continuing the saga of my new MSI Cx640 laptop ( or Notebook as they
seem to be called these days), I've obtained scripts to turn the
Sentelic Touchpad ( seen as a ps2mouse) on and off.
scripts are:-
#Touchpad_disable
#!/bin/sh
echo -n manual > /sys/module/psmouse/drivers/serio\:psmouse/bind_mode
echo serio1 > /sys/module/psmouse/drivers/serio\:psmouse/unbind
and
#TouchPad_enable
#!/bin/sh
echo -n auto > /sys/module/psmouse/drivers/serio\:psmouse/bind_mode
echo serio1 > /sys/module/psmouse/drivers/serio\:psmouse/bind
I can get these to work by running them in a Terminal as sudo
I cant get the following script to work automatically on boot:-
#/etc/udev/rules.d/01-touchpad.rules:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="mouse[1-9]"
ENV{ID_CLASS}="mouse", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/touchpad_disable"
ACTION=="remove", SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="mouse[1-9]"
ENV{ID_CLASS}="mouse", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/touchpad_enable"
Nor can I get the Touchpad_enable/Touchpad_disable scripts to run from a
Gnome Desktop Launcer ( Linux Mint 11).
Help appreciated.
Thanks
