[Bug 755518] [NEW] Synaptics Touchpad incorrectly detected as PS/2 mouse on clausoft MNW737 (aka meenee, aka PX1)

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

There's no touchpad tab in the system/prefs/mouse control panel. gconf-
editor has a button to disable tap-to-click but it has no effect.  Xorg
log does not mention synaptics.  /proc/bus/input/devices does not
mention synaptics. The tpconfig tool is unable to adjust zthreshold or
disable tap to click.  tpconfig reports this:

# tpconfig -D1 -z0
Probing mouse port [/dev/psaux].
Grabbing mouse port [/dev/psaux].
Trying Synaptics detection.
[query 00 => 0x60 0x3 0xc8]
Found Synaptics Touchpad.
[query 0x3 => 0x60 0x3 0xc8]
Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode).
Z threshold set as "0".
[query 0x1 => 0x60 0x3 0xc8]
[query 0x1 => 0x60 0x3 0xc8]
Z threshold: 6 of 7.

Strictly, the touchpad is detected as "ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse"
according to /proc/bus/input/devices

I've reported this as linux (kernel) problem according to advice on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection

>From that page there's just one similar open known bug, which relates to
ALPS hardware (so is different)

As evidence that this is synaptics hardware the vendor provides a windows driver with this identifying info
DriverVer=08/27/2009, 14.0.3.0
DriverMfgr="Synaptics"

This netbook is sold as 'meenee'
