[Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work

 

Good work, Seth!

Dell Latitude E6520, Ubuntu 11.04 AMD64 here. Installing psmouse-alps-
dkms_0.1_all.deb returned the Touchpad preferences and two-finger
scrolling works well.

My experience mirrors that of several others:
* Running "sudo rmmod psmouse; sudo modprobe psmouse" froze my system and left the driver improperly installed. Re-installing the .deb and rebooting fixed this problem.
* I occasionally get an accidental right-click when scrolling.
* The pointer jitters when a finger is idle on the touchpad.
