[Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work

[mättu]

Thanks to Andrew #154 for the patch.
I applied it and fiddled with the codes on line 175 of alps.c

with:
alps_ec_write(psmouse, 0x0005, 0x01)

scrolling works, tapping as well.

although:
alps_ec_write(psmouse, 0x0005, 0x02)
which should disable tapping leads to unusable touchpad behaviour. It clicks randomly all the time. :-S

Have I missed something? This is a Dell E6510 with 2.6.35-22-generic-pae
(32-bit)

@John (#170) How did you disable tapping entirely for the 10.04-kernel?
