[Bug 12124] Re: touchpads occasionally gone wild

[kjon]

Waaahhh! My alps touchpad doesn't wanna work. I prayed to God and Ala,
but they haven't give me any answer.

I tried the trick of changing the device (in xorg.conf) to
"/dev/input/whatever" and the protocol to "event". These changes
resulted in a slower touchpad, however I couldn't fix the erratic
movement. Moreover, my dmesg shows a lot of "lost sync" and "resync
failed" messages from "psmouse.c". I don't know what else can I do...

I even tried to add "psmouse.rate=40" to the kernel bootline (and
"acpi=off"), but It didn't helped either.

Seems that I have to be on the dark side (winblowz) for a while until
this issue gets solved. TT_TT

p.s. My box: Toshiba Satellite M105-SP1031.
p.s.2. option "maxtaptime" looks quite broken!
