Re: ALPS: Cirque Smart Cat Pro AG Touchpad Support

Hi AJ,

This is Tommy from ALPS. From the PCI ID you attached, it looks like
an external USB touchpad (?)
If so, modify alps.c may not let touchpad work since its only for PS/2 device.

I'm sorry although I work in ALPS, I'm not so familar with the
products made by Cirque.
However, I'll try to ask our Cirque's colleagues if they have schedule
to support their products for Linux mainstring.
Thanks !

Hi everyone,

I bought a Cirque Glidepoint (Model GP415U-5321) that I would like to
use with Linux.  I haven't hacked on the kernel before, but I'm happy to
test and modify alps.c as required to get this device working.

I downloaded alps-reg-dump from
git://kernel.ubuntu.com/sforshee/alps-reg-dump.git and it reports:

Found serio mouse at /sys/bus/serio/devices/serio1/
Invalid ack byte 0xfe after command
Invalid ack byte 0xfe after command
E6 report failed, not an ALPS touchpad

The PCI ID of the device is: 0488:0282

I'm not sure if there is anything else I should try.  I am currently
running Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.2.0-29-generic.
