On a quite similar Fujitsu Lifebook SH531, the same problem exists, the touchpad is detected as a generic PS/2 mouse and scrolling does not work in X.
Adding "i8042.nomux" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub and executing "update-grub" makes the touchpad being detected as such by the kernel (/proc/bus/input/devices): I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0007 Version=01b1 N: Name="SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input10 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse0 event10 B: PROP=9 B: EV=b B: KEY=6420 30000 0 0 0 0 B: ABS=260800011000003 But the touchpad will not work, neither with "evtest" nor in X, instead, the kernel produces a lot of: Sep 21 22:22:46 sh531-joachim kernel: [ 50.895201] psmouse.c: bad data from KBC - timeout messages. When in addition, "i8042.notimeout" is added to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub (and update-grub was called), the touchpad works correctly and vertical scrolling works too e.g. in chrome when moving the finger on the right boarder of the touchpad. "xinput" calls also allowed me to enable two finger scrolling, but that is already described elsewhere in detail. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838105 Title: 'Synaptics TouchPad V7.2' incorrectly detected as PS/2 mouse in 'Fujitsu Lifebook LH531' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/838105/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
