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

 

Hello Seth,

I have 11.10 installed on a Dell Inspiron N5110:

$ uname -a
Linux synapse 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:56:25 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I try to install I get:


$ sudo dpkg -i psmouse-alps-dkms_0.10_all.deb 
Selecting previously deselected package psmouse-alps-dkms.
(Reading database ... 138565 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking psmouse-alps-dkms (from psmouse-alps-dkms_0.10_all.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of psmouse-alps-dkms:
 psmouse-alps-dkms depends on dkms (>= 1.95); however:
  Package dkms is not installed.
dpkg: error processing psmouse-alps-dkms (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 psmouse-alps-dkms


Any Idea?

My touchpad works the most basic may: move, right edge vertical scroll. 
None of the multi touch works.. :-(

thanks,

Luciano
