[2.6.8.1-mm1][input] - IBM TouchPad support added? Which patch is this?

[Shawn Starr]

 mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
input: IBM PC110 TouchPad at 0x15e0 irq 10 <----------------------------- This is new
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0
Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1
Firmware: 5.9
Sensor: 44
new absolute packet format
Touchpad has extended capability bits
  -> multifinger detection
  -> palm detection
  -> pass-through port
 input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad on isa0060/serio1
 serio: Synaptics pass-through port atisa0060/serio1/input0

Which patch is this? its nice but I don't see any ability (yet) to control its sensitivity (especially in KDE!). Upon using 2.6.8-rc4-bk2 there was no such device (you could not touch the pad as a button).

Shawn.

Sorry, I stand corrected. I don't know where this patch is added from which 
enables the touchpad to act as a 'button press'.

mousedev now does tap emulation for touchpads working in absolute mode
(Synaptics) so you don't need to use psmouse.proto= parameter to force
it in PS/2 compatibility mode. Use mousedev.tap_time= option to control
it.

The patch is only in -mm at the moment.

Great, it works

On top of that the X driver for the Synaptics device along with qsynaptics (a 
userland GUI tool) all works fine.

Good stuff!

Shawn.

Can that patch be downloaded somewhere to patch against 2.6.8.1? I don't
have any tapping support for my synaptic touchpad on my compaq laptop after
switching from 2.4 to 2.6.
It seems that most of the patches at http://www.geocities.com/dt_or/input/2_6_7/
are already in 2.6.8.1: Just the tapping stuff seems to be missing. And
I can't extract your patch from the 2.6.9-rc1-mm2 stuff, because it seems
to be mixed with some other patches there.
Is there a sole version of this patch fir 2.6.8.1 somewhere?

cu,
Frank

No, I don't think I have one... If you are using BitKeeper, yo could just do:

	bk pull bk://dtor.bkbits.net/input

But have you tried installing XFree86/XOrg Synaptics driver
(http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad/index.html)?
It does support tapping just fine...

I will try that (not having bitkeeper yet, but I planned to do install for
some time... You always need a reason to be pushed :-))

I will try. I had already looked at the page, but it says "If you use a
2.6 linux kernel, you might want to try Dmitry Torokhov's kernel patches."
so that's looked at your patches first :-)

I will try both your proposals and report sucess.
Thanks!

Frank

Yes, that works, as well as the gpm version I have (I just had to
detect the evdev option :-)).

And I also had success with the psmouse.proto=bare option which I just
checked to see if it works...

[INPUT] mousedev touchpad functionality additions for inclusion into 2.6.9?

[Shawn Starr]

Any change of this going into mainline? I'm using this with 2.6.9-rc2-bk2 with 
no issues.

Shawn.

You enabled the IBM PC110 driver. Thats a driver for a specifc touchpad
device on IBM PC110 palmtop pcs - nothing to do with it 8)
