[Bug 660001] [NEW] Touchpad is not recognized (e.g. vertical scroll does not work)

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

It seems that the touchpad is not recognized correctly. The problem
occurs in the Live CD as well as in a freshly installed system.

Here is the output of tpconfig:

Found Synaptics Touchpad.
Firmware: 8.96 (multiple-byte mode).
Sensor type: unknown (0).
Geometry: rectangular/landscape/up.
Packets: absolute, 80 packets per second.
Corner taps disabled;		no tap gestures.
Edge motion: none.
Z threshold: 6 of 7.
2 button mode; corner tap is right button click.

However, X only recognises the mouse as "PS/2 Generic Mouse" and it is
not possible to configure vertical/horizontal scroll.
