[ltp] trackpoint doesn't recognized (2.6.23.17)

[Oleg Bartunov]

Hello,

I am many years owner of thinkpads+linux, but recently got a problem
with my x61s. Everything worked fine (except some buttons) for me until 
I decided to upgrade kernel from 2.6.21.5 to 2.6.23.17.

I tried to change default sensitivity of trackpoint on my
Linux Slackware 12.0  Thinkpad X61s, but got strange problem
with 2.6.23.17

zen:/usr/src/linux/drivers/input/mouse #>echo -n "200" > 
/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/sensitivity
bash: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/sensitivity: Permission denied

Looks like trackpoint doesn't recognized
zen:/usr/src/linux/drivers/input/mouse #>dmesg |grep mouse
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice

psmouse compiled as a module. Below is relevan part of my .config:
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSE=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=m
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_ALPS=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_LOGIPS2PP=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_SYNAPTICS=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_LIFEBOOK=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_TRACKPOINT=y

Do you have any idea what could be a problem ?


 	Regards,
 		Oleg
