2.5 bk, input driver and dell i8100 nib+pad

["James H. Cloos Jr." <cloos@jhcloos.com>]

Trying out 2.5, I've got only a partially working mouse.  The usb
mouse is fully functional, as are both sets of buttons on the
notebook.  The mouse pad works, but the nib is ignored.

Of course, I only ever use the nib and only noticed that the pad was
working by accident.

I seem to recall a similar post some time back, but cannot find it in
my archives.  

Any ideas?

I do need to reboot into 2.4 and clone my bk clone from the sbp2 disk
to the internal disk (ohci1394 is b0rked ATM) to see the .config I
ended up with....

The relevant X config is:

Section "ServerFlags"
  Option       "AllowMouseOpenFail"
EndSection

  Identifier   "Mouse[1]"

  Option       "Protocol" "ps/2"
  Option       "Vendor" "AutoDetected"
  Option       "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection

  Option       "Vendor" "AutoDetected"
  Option       "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
