In psm.c:psmprobe(), the touchpad reverts back to Relative mode (default mode) just after auxiliary kbdc ports are disabled. A workaround is to send a Read Mode Byte command: the touchpad is again in Absolute mode. Because I don't know if other laptops/touchpad versions work with current psm(4), I'd be happy with success/failure reports with this patch from people who have (working or not) touchpads. To enable Synaptics support, you must add this line to your /boot/loader.conf: hw.psm.synaptics_support="1" If psm(4) gurus think this isn't the right way to fix it, please tell me. The patch is available at: http://people.freebsd.org/~dumbbell/synaptics/psm-synaptics-abs_mode-c.patch Regards, - -- Jean-Sébastien Pédron http://www.dumbbell.fr/ PGP Key: http://www.dumbbell.fr/pgp/pubkey.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFD0QU9a+xGJsFYOlMRAvQsAJ4+3X6embAZZWRz+QnTJ8EPhYVfKwCg1V3a HD288rfGjYDKdj80AutzL/I= =FyMA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
