https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D209473 Bug ID: 209473 Summary: There is no /dev/psm0 device for my synaptics touchpad when I load FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE Product: Base System Version: 10.3-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: oleglelchuk@gmail.com CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org I have a strange issue. I own this particular laptop: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=3DN82E16834298945 and FreeB= SD 10.3-STABLE, 11-CURRENT and 10.3-RELEASE don't recognize this touchpad. It's not even recognizable as a generic PS/2 mouse. No matter how many suggestio= ns I followed (such as putting hw.psm.synaptics_support=3D"1" in loader.conf or modifying xorg.conf), this touchpad remains completely undetectable on eith= er X or the console by the versions of FreeBSD that I mentioned above. These versions of FreeBSD never created [file]/dev/psm0[/file] device in the /dev directory. However, FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE did detect this touchpad as a gener= ic PS/2 mouse! When I typed [code] dmesg | grep psm[/code] after loading 9.3-RELEASE, I got this: [code]psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0 psm0: [GIANT-LOCKED] psm0: model Generic PS/2 mouse, device ID 0[/code] . Then I am able to use = the touchpad after executing the moused command. So, please explain to me what I can do to get rid of this issue on 11-CURRENT or 10.3-STABLE. All I want is= for one of these versions to recognize this touchpad as a generic PS/2 mouse. T= he OpenBSD kernel ver. 5.9 is able to recognize this touchpad as a Synaptics model. I can use it when I load X on OpenBSD. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
