** Description changed:

  Initially the ALPS touchpad was detected by the kernel but does not
  support horizontal and vertical support but after the kernel upgrade to
  10.04 vertical scroll is working but horizontal scroll is not working.
  And the kernel is not detecting the ALPS touchpad and the cat
  /proc/bus/input/devices says it is a  PS2 mouse ..
  
- This is seen in sony vaio E series in particular ...

- Also Bill in Comment #52 says
- Acer Aspire One 532h (Alps touchpad).
- I booted the distribution from a thumb drive, but once I installed from the thumb drive and updated Ubuntu (10.04), I lost the touchpad (works as a mouse) ..
