Hi Pali, This series try to address the issue you brought regarding trackstick initialization on Dell Latitudes in a different way than the patches you proposed. Basically in this series we move resetting and all detection in alps_detect() and make sure we keep the state so alps_init() can reuse it and not perform the detection all over again. Doing this allows us to set up device characteristics (name, version, etc) properly from the get go while still performing reset only once. This is untested as I do not have any ALPS devices anymore so I'd appreciate you giving it a spin.
