Description of problem:

  At present, the ALPS DualPoint TouchPad is not supported under Linux, being
  recognised as a PS/2 mouse only.

  Tommy Will / Yunkang Tang from ALPS has written a kernel patch adding support
  for it (attached), which he'll submit to the upstream linux-input mailing
  list soon.

  The patch has been tested successfully by Gaspard Jankowiak, a Fedora
  Community member with this hardware.  He used a Fedora 19 kernel built by
  Niels de Vos, with the patch added for this purpose.

  This BZ is mostly for tracking, so that if/when the patch is accepted
  upstream, it can be pulled into the relevant Fedora 19 kernel.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  Linux kernel 3.11.x

The feedback from Gaspard (copied from email):

  The touchpad is now recognized, edge scrolling is working, and 
  two-finger scrolling is not.

  dmesg snip:
  [    2.786816] input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad as 
  /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input5

  Tested with
  Name        : kernel
  Version     : 3.11.6
  Release     : 200.0.bz953211.2.fc19
  Architecture: x86_64

Note - 2 finger scrolling is not supported by the hardware, so this is
as expected. :)

Justin, I'm confused.  How is this bug any different from the tracking
bug we have for this already, which is bug 953211 ?

Did I miss some subtlety here?

Yeah, they're for different hardware (although still from ALPS).

The patch for BZ 953211 doesn't help with the touchpad on the Dell XT2,
thus the patch in this BZ (and it's just a 1-liner).

Is that clearer now? :)

Ah, I see.  I should have just read the patch.  We're just adding a
device ID to the existing support here, right?

> Is that clearer now? :)

Yes, thank you.

OK.  I'll try and get this added today.  I believe this is queued in the
