G'day list, I have a Dell Latitude E6410 and after months of putting up with no touchpad scrolling out of sheer laziness I've decided to bite the bullet and try to get it going.
I'm running Debian Squeeze (amd64) on the stock kernel. I'm trying to apply the patch which has been widely circulated for about 18 months now. This patch can be found here (the instructions seem to be for Ubuntu): http://budts.be/weblog/2010/12/dell-latitude-e6510-screen-and-touchpad I've downloaded the patch, and am trying to apply it. However I'm not having much success: fagg@hubble:~/src/linux-2.6-2.6.32/drivers/input/mouse$ patch -p0 < ~/src/patch-dell-e6510 patching file alps.c Hunk #1 FAILED at 40. Hunk #2 FAILED at 66.
