[Question #51526]: Elantech touchpad on asus 1000h and ubuntu-eee

 

New question #51526 on Ubuntu Eee:

I'm using ubuntu-eee hardy, but i've tried the following on hardy-proposed as well and the results are the same. I have an asus 1000h with Elantech touchpad. I did follow the guide at http://www.array.org/ubuntu/elantech.html to enable the elantech driver; everything works fine during the configuration steps, but just after the next reboot and login the touchpad is frozen. Buttons work, but moovements are completely not recognized. When i try to open gsynaptics interface, the touchpad sensitivity is set to 0, and i can't modify it (i can, but he doesn't save changes, so when i reopen it, sensitivity is set on 0 again). Finally, if i comment again the "psmouse elantech=1" line in /etc/modprobe.d/eeepc elantech support is disabled and touchpad works as any common mouse (except for vertical two-finger scrolling and three-finger tap ---> right mouse button click, that worked since i installed ubuntu-eee). However, disabling "psmouse elantech=1" also makes the touchpad to be recognized as a "Logitech Wheel mouse".

Thanks
