 The built-in pad on Sony VAIO is not detected as GlidePoint, because
 it is NOT one of GlidePoint models from ALPS.
 
 VAIO's pad is, AFAIK, VersaPad from Advanced Technolgy.  Its
 identification procedure and its native protocol is totally different
 from GlidePoint's.
 
 The work is in progress to add VersaPad support to the psm driver.
