I am trying to make the synaptics touchpad work on fedora. I am
following the instructions on
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Apple_MacBook/
The first problem is that some modules (mousedev, usbhid and evdev)
are compiled builtin. Why?. I compiled a custom kernel with them as
modules.
To force the order in which they are loaded, I added the following
line to modprobe.conf:
install mousedev /sbin/modprobe usbhid && /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install mousedev
install usbhid /sbin/modprobe appletouch && /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install usbhid
install appletouch /sbin/modprobe evdev && /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install appletouch
install evdev /sbin/modprobe uhci_hcd && /sbin/modprobe
--ignore-install evdev
Is there a better way to do it?
Unfortunately, X still can't find the synaptics:
Query no Synaptics: 6003C8
(EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater
device
(EE) Synaptics Touchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics Touchpad"
I will try to upgrade the synaptics driver. Does anyone has another
suggestion?
Cheers,
Rafael
I have the same problem on my macbook (not pro). The touchpad is
identified as a generic mouse and lacks a lot of features. This is
fedora 7 test1 btw.
