Thanks for your efforts on this.  Yes, I made mistake(s) converting the
V5 init sequence, which you debugged and successfully fixed.   I have
added your changes to a new patch candidate at [1]

Please test.  If I hear nothing in a couple days I will resubmit the
E6430/E6530 patch to ubuntu.

To answer your questions:

Q1)  Yes, I think it is the same thrice PSMOUSE_CMD_RESET_WRAP sequence.
This is the indicator to enter "command mode", where the touchpad can be
configured.  I have added this to the code.  Ben and I have not figured
out what is being configured when in command mode, just that it works.

Q2) PSMOUSE_CMD_GETINFO returns a three-byte status code in the param
field.   It is important to determine the alps touchpad version for the
so-called "E6" and "E7" code fragments .   I could not figure out what
the three-byte value indicates at other times.
