I think we have _2_ completely different issues here. The first one is (exclusively) on Dell hardware where the Tracpad isn't recognized and shows up as a PS/2 mouse. For this bug (which I have), the patch here doesn't seem to help at all. The second bug (fixed by the patch) seems to be where the trackpad was recognized... see title of this bug, but is mis-behaving. This case affects some Dells and Sony alike.
Unfortunately, many of the tickets marked as a duplicate of this one are really not a duplicate, since the trackpad isn't recognized at all. Here are the ones I think should be broken off into another related, but different bug report. I recommend #606238 be the primary. #601035 #601113 #603439 #605855 #606238 #606448 #611079 #660001 #688276 #749508 #754015 #754344 #760142 #773305 #795349 I'd really prefer if these tickets were *unmarked* as a duplicate of this one. This ticket says the tracpad is recognized, in these tickets the trackpad shows up as a fallback psmouse. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
