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

 

Report on Dell E6420, alps version 0.9

Trackstick - perfect
- buttons work, including wheel emulation with middle one
- trackstick works

Touchpad
- usual one finger movement works
- two finger scroll works (only in vertical direction, not sure if it's supposed to work in horizontal too)
- side scroll doesn't work in either direction
- tap to click doesn't work, cursor just jumps a little, no button event is generated
- disable while typing doesn't work (works when I run syndaemon, which is probably better way to do it anyway)

One little suggestion, could you please add alps module version to the
stuff it prints on modprobe? After few days of using it, I wasn't sure
which version I had and had to recompile to do the tests.

Thanks
