Robbie, I missed the beginning of the thread, but did you follow Ben's
directions?
Yes, I followed them exactly. Like I said, external usb mice work fine, and
the internal adb keyboard works fine, but the trackpad (also adb) doesn't
work at all. I tried gpm -m /dev/mouse -t imps2 and several variations
thereof, but nothing worked. The trackpad is detected correctly by the
kernel, according to dmesg. There are no errors reported of any kind, the
trackpad simply does nothing.
Can you please post the dmesg part where all the ADB/USB devices get
registered to inputs? And please also the line which contains "adb devices"
in the dmesg and your kernel .config.

Franz.
