I just bought a HP Revolve 810 G1 laptop. (This is a convertible
ultrabook, normally sold with Windows 8.) The touchpad seems to be
another ALPS touchpad, not yet recognized by the kernel; I tried the
Debian package of 3.12 and linux-next-20131224 compiled from
source. Without the proper driver, it is unusuably sensisitive,
registering clicks when my hands are well away from the touchpad.
The relevant line from dmesg is

[    2.776630] psmouse serio4: alps: Unknown ALPS touchpad: E7=73 03 0a,
EC=88 b3 18

Should I try hacking drivers/input/mouse/alps.c to see if one of the
existing protocols works?

Tommy, Yunkang,

Do you have anything in works to support this new model? Or it is
not an ALPS device at all?

Thanks!
