It should show as "AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad". I believe
Glidepoint is the name of the ALPS touchpad without passthrough

the xorg.conf input section provided in README.alps

The patch you're talking about is already in the current kernel. It
adds support for the R61 ALPS touchpad, indeed. Is your kernel up to
date?
