[Bug 311869] Re: Add driver for Sentelic Touch pad

Hi, I've just installed Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 on an Inforce netbook, it has
a Sentelic FingerSensingPad (fspps /2). I installed it for a friend.

Strangely, at first (live CD and my first boot after installation) there
was no problem whatsoever with the touchpad.

After I updated, and rebooted, I gave it to my friend. A few hours
later, she returned, with the touchpad gone crazy (like described
above). The machine also tends to suspend itself suddenly and without
warning.

I tried installing the 2.6.34 kernel from kernel.ubuntu.com, but that
does not help.

I followed the Howto that hansvschoot and phil gave, but could not succeed to make the psmouse.ko
I have build-essentials, gcc, and the linux headers.
When I run "make" in the terminal, somewhere in the middle (when it gets to the sentelic.c file, several error messages occured. Such as:

"
Error : 'TASK UNINTERRUPTIBLE undeclared (first use in this function)
Error : (each undeclared identifier is reported only once)
Error : for each function it appears in.
Error : implicit declaration of function  'schedule timeout'

Ok, so what should I do?

Also, can anybody else running Lucid (or the 2.6.32 kernel) confirm
whether they still have the same problem I do?

Thanks in advance
