I can't make work the multitouch of the ALPS touchpad in my Dell Inspiron I15RN-3647BK with Ubuntu 11.10 x64, kernel 3.0.0-17-generic... I have tried with this driver but it doesn't work http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/alps-touchpad/psmouse-alps-0.10/psmouse-alps-dkms_0.10_all.deb. This is the result from the following command:
user@laptop:~$ xinput list
? Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
? ? Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
? ? PS/2 Generic Mouse id=12 [slave pointer (2)]
? Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
? Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Sleep Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_HD id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
? AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=11 [slave keyboard (3)]
? Dell WMI hotkeys
That came with or without the alps driver from canonical repository and the touchpad just works like a PS2 generic mouse...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance...
