Subject: [gentoo-amd64] Lost synaptics touchpad scrolling after kernel upgrade
Date: Fri, 17 Jun 2011 22:11:10 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110618021110.GA14222@localhost> (raw)
Hello all,
I upgraded from 2.6.37-gentoo-r4 to 2.6.38-gentoo-r6. I didn't change
anything in the config file, and used the old kernel config to compile
the new kernel. However, when I booted into the new kernel, I found the
scrolling in the touch pad is not working !
If I boot into the older kernel it works fine. I recompiled the
following Xorg drivers under the new kernel :
xf86-input-evdev-2.6.0
xf86-input-mouse-1.7.0
xf86-input-synaptics-1.3.0
xf86-video-fbdev-0.4.2
xf86-video-intel-2.14.0
xf86-video-vesa-2.3.0
I tried to check the correct mouse device using:
cat /dev/input/*
For all the devices, but none produced the expected output of
unreadable characters.
For some reason, TouchPad is not found, as per /var/log/Xorg.0.log
