Re: New ALPS not detected EC=88 b6 06 - Lenovo Ideapad Flex 15D

[Omar Loggiodice <ologgio@yahoo.com>]

The patch works very well! I now need to adjust the settings. I wanted to let you know  two 
finger middle button works, along with two finger scrolling, circular 
scrolling, edge scrolling, right button, etc. Everything is working. 


Thank you all for the good work you do for the linux community.

Hi Omar,

Thanks for your mail. This is Tommy from ALPS.
According to your info "E7=73 03 0a, EC=88 b6 06", I think you're now
using ALPS_PROTO_V7 device.
My colleague Elaine(Qiting) is now working with this touchpad's
support and has released a patch last week.
You can have a try ~

If you find any issue or have any suggestion, please kindly let us
know. We'll try our best to make the driver better.

Thanks!
