Hi,
I am a Gentoo user and have installed xorg-server-1.3.99 (and other
components) from the r300-driver overlay. X works great but my Alps touchpad
stopped working. I am hoping someone might point me in the right direction
here.
I can plug in my USB mouse which works fine, but the Alps touchpad does not
send any events (I've checked all devices under /dev/input/...). It does
however wake up the display.
The ebuild builds and install the server from:
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver
master
and
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
master
It is detected by the kernel:
---------
Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 6.1, id: 0xa3a0b3, caps: 0xa04713/0x10008
input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /class/input/input5
---------
and it appears to be detected by the xorg server:
---------
(II) LoadModule: "synaptics"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so
(II) Module synaptics: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
(II) LoadModule: "synaptics"
(II) Reloading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//synaptics_drv.so
---------
Finally, the relevant section from the xorg.conf:
---------
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Synaptics Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "SendCoreEvents"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"
# Option "Protocol" "event"

Option "RightEdge" "5900"
Option "TopEdge" "1400"
Option "BottomEdge" "4500"
Option "FingerLow" "25"
Option "FingerHigh" "30"
Option "MaxTapTime" "180"
Option "MaxTapMove" "220"
Option "VertScrollDelta" "100"
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "100"
Option "MinSpeed" "0.15"
Option "MaxSpeed" "0.18"
Option "AccelFactor" "0.0009"
Option "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "200"
Option "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "200"
Option "UpDownScrolling" "1"
Option "CircularScrolling" "1"
Option "CircScrollDelta" "0.1"
Option "CircScrollTrigger" "2"
# Disable touchpad while typing:
Option "SHMConfig" "on"
EndSection

Kind regards,
