Hi,
I basically have the same problem as in
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=167028
Just bought the Samsung Series 9 (900x3e) and got lots of stuff not working properly, including the clickpad.
Here's my output:
# xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ PS/2 Elantech ETF1059 Click-Pad id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
...# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf

# We don't simply match on any device since that also adds accelerometers
# and other devices that we don't really want to use. The list below

Unfortunately running synclient gives:
# synclient
Couldn't find synaptics properties. No synaptics driver loaded?which I really don't get at all, with
# pacman -Q xf86-input-synaptics xf86-input-evdev
xf86-input-synaptics 1.7.1-1
xf86-input-evdev 2.8.1-1I would greatly appreciate any ideas on how to get at least vertical scrolling going.
Thanks,

Edit #1:
Here's the relevant Xorg.log output. Does anybody know whether it's alright that the "Click-Pad" get's recognized as pointer? Shouldn't be recognized as a touchpad device?

Edit #2:
So, I've researched some more and as far as I get it, the problem is, that the touchpad gets recognized as a pointer rather than a touchpad. So no synaptics driver is loaded.
Edit #3:
Out of curiosity I tried to change 10-evdev.conf to load the synaptics driver for pointing devices. Resulted in the following error in Xorg.log:
[ 1105.783] (EE) synaptics: PS/2 Elantech ETF1059 Click-Pad: Synaptics driver unable to detect protocol
[ 1105.783] (EE) PreInit returned 11 for "PS/2 Elantech ETF1059 Click-Pad"
[ 1105.783] (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"-.-
Edit #4:
So I researched some more and found other posts about enabling the synaptics driver with Elantech touchpads. Unfortunately they seemed to get it working with the ASUS Zenbook and with the 3.2 mainline kernel, so I'm kinda stumped why is not working with the current 3.10.3 kernel.
I did change my psmouse options to:
options psmouse proto=impsbut that didn't solve it.
I'm basically still stuck at not getting the synaptics driver to "detect the protocol" as in Edit #3
:(
FINAL EDIT:
So I solved it ... kinda.
Actually there is no fix. You either gotta wait until the 3.11 kernel gets stable or you can clone the current 3.11-rcX repo and build it yourself, which is what I did.
The Elantech driver fix they are discussing here has already been merged into the 3.11-rc tree and (at least for me) works like a charm:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1166442
Dunno how reinstalling Arch could've fixed that driver, but anyway, Ubuntu to the rescue!
Cheers,
