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

 

I think we have _2_ completely different issues here.  The first one
is (exclusively) on  Dell hardware where the Tracpad isn't recognized
and shows up as a PS/2 mouse.  For this bug (which I have), the patch
here doesn't seem to help at all.   The second bug (fixed by the patch) 
seems to be where the trackpad was recognized... see title of this bug,
but is mis-behaving.   This case affects some Dells and Sony alike.

Unfortunately, many of the tickets marked as a duplicate of this one
are really not a duplicate, since the trackpad isn't recognized at all.
Here are the ones I think should be broken off into another related,
but different bug report.   I recommend #606238 be the primary.

#601035 
#601113
#603439
#605855 
#606238
#606448
#611079
#660001 
#688276 
#749508 
#754015 
#754344
#760142 
#773305 
#795349

I'd really prefer if these tickets were *unmarked* as a duplicate
of this one.  This ticket says the tracpad is recognized, in these
tickets the trackpad shows up as a fallback psmouse.
