hello,
for some time, i was a happy user of stephen evanchik's Trackpoint driver.
Recently i updated my kernel to 2.6.12 (and the patch), and since then, the
trackpoint no longer works. I saw the /proc support was replaced by /sys
support, and scroll emulation was removed.
when i don't compile in the driver, my trackpoint works (but i cannot setup
things). When i compile it in, my trackpoint apparently gets detected, but it
doesn't work.
IBM TrackPoint firmware: 0x0E
input: TrackPoint IBM TrackPoint on synaptics-pt/serio0
in sysfs i find the following (see below)
am i overlooking something, or am i doing something wrong ? somebody got its
trackpoint working with recent 2.6 ?
thanks !
greetings,
frank
