Update from Dudley Du of Cypress: "...I doubt that the Trackpad you use is Cypress’ PS2 trackpad, because we didn’t ship any PS2 trackpad devices recent 2~3 years, and no one know “China ZM180” model machine. we only shipped PS2 trackpad devices to Dell and Lenovo before.
...I think it may be wrongly identified. I encountered this case before, CYPS2 driver was loaded successfully but the trackpad is not Cypress’." The vendor is Chinese company Egolobal (https://wholesaler.alibaba.com /product-detail/8G-RAM-256G-SSD-Core-i3_60538153092.html). On this page they say "Other systems we can install free are like Linux, XBMC(Kodi), Ubuntu, Openelec etc if you need". I am contacting the vendor to find out who is the manufacturer of the Trackpad and why it identifies as "CyPS/2 Cypress Trackpad" and does not work when I install Linux Mint 18, which is, as to device drivers, is the same to Ubuntu. I don't know what makes this device identify itself as CyPS/2 Cypress Trackpad - does it bear this name in its microcode or identified so by the OS. In latter case - is there a way to change its identification so that the OS might try another driver for it? Currently I am waiting for a response from the vendor as to how I should install Ubuntu on this laptop so that its Trackpad would work (as they say in their ad). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1645011 Title: CyPS/2 Cypress Trackpad driver errors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1645011/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
