The lshal output shows that the touchpad device is recognized by hal:
udi =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_5ac_230_noserial_if2_logicaldev_input'
info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.touchpad'} (string list)
info.category = 'input' (string)
info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_5ac_230_noserial_if2'
(string)
info.product = 'bcm5974' (string)
info.subsystem = 'input' (string)
info.udi =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_5ac_230_noserial_if2_logicaldev_input'
(string)
input.device = '/dev/input/event8' (string)
input.originating_device =
'/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_5ac_230_noserial_if2' (string)
input.product = 'bcm5974' (string)
linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event8' (string)
linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int)
linux.subsystem = 'input' (string)
linux.sysfs_path =
'/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.2/usb7/7-2/7-2:1.2/input/input8/event8'
(string)
But it isn't marked for X11:
input.x11_driver = 'synaptics' (string)
This is what my own touchpad has, and it is set by
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-x11-synaptics.fdi:
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
<merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
Do you have the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package installed? If so,
can you please do a hal debug output as described on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHal ? If not, can you please install it
and see whether it works then?
** Changed in: hal (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
