I believe I have the same bug. I am running Xubuntu 9.04 on a Malata PC-81006. "xinput list" lists a "ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse" but no touchpad. "lshal | grep synaptics" results in nothing. Copying and adding parameters to enable scrolling to /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi .does not result in any change.
The touchpad works as a mouse, but lacks scrolling and other features. I have all the necessary output if needed. Thank you for your work. Here are snippets from dmesg and device: dmesg: input: ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio2/input/input8 device: I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0006 Version=0000 N: Name="ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse" P: Phys=isa0060/serio2/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/i8042/serio2/input/input8 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse1 event8 B: EV=7 B: KEY=1f0000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 B: REL=143 -- Trackpad detected as PS/2 Generic Mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359363 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
