Dell XPS M1530 ALPS touchpad doesn't work

Hi
I have updated arch couple days ago, and now, vertical scrolling on my ALPS touchpad isn't working anymore. I tried hal hotplugging, and with xorg.conf, none of them  works. I have no idea where is the problem, Touchpad works just fine, taping also, but no vertical and horizontal scrolling sad. help sad

Re: Dell XPS M1530 ALPS touchpad doesn't work

As I said, I tried EVERYTHING what's on wiki page. And once again, IT WAS working before updates.

I dont know but, "lshal" command doesn't show anything about touchpad. That's weird.

Re: Dell XPS M1530 ALPS touchpad doesn't work

Hi
i've got a M1530 too and i've got exactly the same problem. i've tried to make 3 different policies in HAL and to change my xorg, but scrolling is not working...
Also i've installed Gsynpatics and i'm able to disable the TAP, and itss working!  but nothing for scrolling... If you have an issue...

lshal | grep synaptic
  input.x11_driver = 'synaptics'  (string)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2"> 
  <device>
  <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">

Re: Dell XPS M1530 ALPS touchpad doesn't work

try with this one:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="info.product" contains="AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint">
        <append key="info.capabilities" type="strlist">input.touchpad</append>
    </match> 
    <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
        <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
    <merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">true</merge>
    <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>

    <merge key="input.x11_options.BottomEdge" type="string">700</merge>
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

Works on Dell Vostro 1310 with Alps touchpad... Horizontal and vertical scrolling is ok... If this doesnt work for you can you post your Xorg.log?

Re: Dell XPS M1530 ALPS touchpad doesn't work

Still not working, I think it's because of HAL which doesn't recognize my touchpad. "lshal |grep touchpad" doesnt show anything.

Re: Dell XPS M1530 ALPS touchpad doesn't work

@lgolebio

Wait, your touchpad works, but you don't have scrolling? Can you post your xorg.log and fdi from /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi ?

@tekilaz

Np man, I had a lot of trouble to configure scrolling on my touchpad but after a hal update and rewriting fdi from scratch it worked...
