[SOLVED] Hotplugging Synaptics touchpad does not work

Hey there,

I tried to hotplug my touchpad with X.org/HAL but to no avail :(

Here's my /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>                                                                              
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
  <device>
    <match key="info.product" contains="ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad">
        <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.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">3</merge>
        <merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string">2</merge>
        <!-- Arbitrary options can be passed to the driver using
             the input.x11_options property since xorg-server-1.5. -->
        <!-- EXAMPLES:
        Switch on shared memory, enables the driver to be configured at runtime
        <merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">true</merge>

        Maximum movement of the finger for detecting a tap
        <merge key="input.x11_options.MaxTapMove" type="string">2000</merge>

        Enable vertical scrolling when dragging along the right edge
        <merge key="input.x11_options.VertEdgeScroll" type="string">true</merge>

        Enable vertical scrolling when dragging with two fingers anywhere on the touchpad
        <merge key="input.x11_options.VertTwoFingerScroll" type="string">true</merge>

        Enable horizontal scrolling when dragging with two fingers anywhere on the touchpad
        <merge key="input.x11_options.HorizTwoFingerScroll" type="string">true</merge>

        If on, circular scrolling is used
        <merge key="input.x11_options.CircularScrolling" type="string">true</merge>

        For other possible options, check CONFIGURATION DETAILS in synaptics man page
        -->
    </match>
  </device>
</deviceinfo>

However, lshal doesn't show that my touchpad's input.x11_driver = 'synaptics' thus X.org doesn't recognise it:

udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_AUX_port_logicaldev_input'
  info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.touchpad'} (string list)
  info.category = 'input'  (string)
  info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_AUX_port'  (string)
  info.product = 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'  (string)
  info.subsystem = 'input'  (string)
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_AUX_port_logicaldev_input'  (string)
  input.device = '/dev/input/event7'  (string)
  input.originating_device = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_AUX_port'  (string)
  input.product = 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'  (string)
  linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event7'  (string)
  linux.hotplug_type = 2  (0x2)  (int)
  linux.subsystem = 'input'  (string)
  linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7/event7'  (string)

I'm at a loss about how to solve this and I've disabled hotplugging as a temporary though not optimal measure. Someone help me :(

Re: [SOLVED] Hotplugging Synaptics touchpad does not work

post Xorg.0.log. i think isn't working because of <match key="info.product" contains="ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad">
maybe you don't have that device

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: [SOLVED] Hotplugging Synaptics touchpad does not work

No, I'm pretty sure it's not because of that - they are separate from each other so I'm sure that wouldn't be the problem.

As for the Xorg.log, I've currently disabled hotplugging so sad

Re: [SOLVED] Hotplugging Synaptics touchpad does not work

Edit: Oop, never mind, it decided to start working automagically.

Re: [SOLVED] Hotplugging Synaptics touchpad does not work

Hi, I know this one is solved, but I just did a fresh install with arch's default 2.6.29, hal 0.5.12git20090406.46dc48-1, xorg-server 1.6.0-3, xf86-input-evdev 2.2.1-1 and xf86-input-synaptics 1.1.0-1, without /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi, it works almost perfectly, just doesn't have vertical scrolling. I really don't use it that much, but it comes in handy sometimes, I admit.
Maybe it won't help to share this, but it won't hurt either.

cheers

edit: I got the vertical scrolling working, created /etc/hal/fdi/policy/touchpad.fdi; /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi had match key info.product all wrong.
